An eyewitness also told The New Paper that both men remained calm after the incident, and that the victim even stayed on his feet and argued with the suspect's girlfriend after the stabbing.

Police also said that the victim was conveyed conscious to NUH, and is in stable condition, and that investigations into the case were ongoing.
