POLICE have released images of the victim in a stabbing in Leeds city centre as they continue to appeal to find him.
West Yorkshire Police was contacted at 2.28am on Tuesday by the ambulance service, which had been called St Paul's Street, near to the junction with Park Cross Street.
A spokesperson for the force said: "An ambulance had been called after a man approached a member of the public in the street and showed them apparent stab wounds to his torso and head which appeared to be serious.
"He left the scene prior to the ambulance arriving."
He was described as white, aged about 30, about 5ft 7ins, small, with a slim face, brown hair and a stubble beard.
He was described as wearing dark-coloured bottoms, possibly three-quarter length, and a white t-shirt which was heavily bloodstained.
Despite extensive enquiries, officers have not yet been able to identify and locate the man to establish the seriousness of his injuries.
A 45-year-old man, who was arrested on suspicion of wounding with intent in relation to the incident, has been released on bail.
The scenes in various locations in the city centre have now been removed.
Police would like to hear from anyone who recognises the man in the CCTV images released, as well as those who witnessed the stabbing, or has any information that could assist in tracing the victim.
