A murder investigation has been launched after a man was stabbed to death in Bristol on Friday evening.
The victim, who has not been named, was attacked by a man at around 5.45pm on the busy Stapleton Road.
Police officers began administering first aid before paramedics arrived at the scene. He was then transported to Southmead Hospital but pronounced dead later that evening.
The victim is yet to be formally identified but police are aiming to inform all of his family members as soon as possible.
Police search teams and helicopters scoured east Bristol on Friday night to find the offender.
One man was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender and is in custody, but arrest attempts are continuing.
“A large amount of CCTV has already been reviewed to further our understanding of what happened and those efforts are continuing today,” said Bristol Commander Superintendent Mark Runacres.
Parts of the road are still closed and police said they will maintain an “increased presence” in the area “not because we’re aware of any increased risk, but because we want to make sure you can approach us to raise any concerns”.

Mr Runacres urged anyone with information to contact police, adding that he was aware people were filming in the area, and would like to hear from anyone with footage relevant to their investigation.
However, he asked that out of respect for the man’s friends and family, no insensitive footage is published on social media.
Anyone with information is asked to call 101 and quote reference number 5224248976.
