Two teenagers are amongst three people taken to hospital after being found with serious injuries following a disturbance.
Police Scotland said a 20-year-old man, along with male youths aged 15 and 17, were all taken to hospital for treatment after they were called out to a report of three people being seriously injured at a property in Kilwinning Road in Stevenston, Ayrshire.
That call, at about 2.10pm on Sunday, came after an earlier disturbance in the Trelawney Terrace area of the town.
Inspector Douglas Clark, from the nearby Irvine Police Station, said: “Officers are following a positive line of inquiry and a police presence will remain in the area while we carry out investigations.”
He said that anyone with concerns should speak to the police officers, adding: “We understand this incident may be worrying for the people living in this community and would ask anyone with concern to speak to us.”
