A section of Mulgrave Street, which is at the junction of Digby Street was cordoned off by police.
Forensics teams examined the scene of the crime yesterday.
Ambulance crews were called to the scene just before 3pm.
One resident who wished to remain anonymous said: "We saw the police vans and cars arrive on the road just before 3pm but we have no idea what has happened.
"It looks serious as there are so many officers at the junction and they have taped off the road."
Another resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said: "I did not see what happened but you could see blood on the pavement outside the house."
Any witnesses are being urged to contact Humberside Police on 0845 60 60 222, quoting reference number 4109.

“Any thoughts now Mr Griffin, the alleged attacker is called Rostislav Nejelov, British I don`t think so? Were we right to jump to our conclusion?
Oh and you are wrong about the benefits they can claim as well. They are entitled to all benefits immediately, with the exception of JSA, which you correctly state they have to have worked here for 2 years for.”

“interesting that people are jumping to conclusions that it is members of the hard working eastern european community who get paid minimum for anything they do and are not eligible for any benefits whatsoever until they have been here for two years. YES send them back and make all the lazy english scum (who havent worked for years claiming invalidity benefit driving new cars and having every latest plasma screens etc and swanning off to Bulgaria for their holidays en masse) do the jobs they do !”

“Where exactly in the story does it say there was any involvement by East Europeans?
That's some rant by 'me' given the information available.”

“Another thing the politicians don't tell you is how much dealing with eastern europeans costs us in hidden charges, interpreter costs for both victims, suspects, and also when these matters go to court has shot through the roof. I understand that nationally the Police now spend a significant amount of money on interpreters, and as usual the government allocate no extra cash, this comes out of current budgets, money that could be spent on other things. This is not the first incident involving non english speaking individuals, and definitely won't be the last. But shush, don't say it too loud, or the telegraph will delete your letters and the official bodies will accuse you of being rascist.
And we wonder why locals are getting fed up, and why the awful BNP are getting more support.”

“"Not surprised", you are so correct, I believe both were. I always find it ironic that politicians who love statistics, when favourable of course, never use the statistic the as immigration has rocketed so has knife year on year.”
