A man has been charged following an alleged stabbing at a Thornaby petrol station. 

Scott Northmore, 28, is set to appear at Teesside Magistrates' Court on Monday, October 14, charged in connection with an incident at Hollybush service station on Saturday. 

Emergency services were called to the forecourt, just off Thornaby Road, around 5.30am after a man in his thirties suffered stab wounds. 

He was taken to hospital where he remains in a stable condition - with Cleveland Police confirming his injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.

Northmore, of Wensleydale Gardens, has since been charged with grievous bodily harm with intent, possession of an offensive weapon, possession of a Class C drug and possession of a Class B drug, and was remanded in custody. 

As previously reported, officers taped off the petrol station on Saturday following the incident, with white-suited crime scene investigators spotted carrying out enquiries at the scene.
