Police have arrested a 35-year-old Serbian man for stabbing nightclub mogul Hugo Chetcuti in the heart of Paceville last night, Lovin Malta can confirm.

According to One News, the man was arrested in Sliema following a drawn-out police chase. The alleged aggressor was reportedly first spotted by police on the hill leading down to Balluta, but managed to run all the way to Exiles. He initially gave police the slip but was later arrested near St James Hospital.

According to One, the man resisted arrest, forcing the police to taser him due to his large size. He was then sent to hospital under a heavy police escort to be treated for minor injuries.

Chetcuti – the owner of several entertainment outlets and restaurants in Paceville – was stabbed at around 10:45pm. The alleged aggressor’s motive remains unclear.
