A nurse is in a serious condition in hospital after reportedly being stabbed by a patient.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

The alarm was raised about the incident at Ailsa Hospital in Ayr at around 10.05am on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Officers are carrying out an “extensive search of the local area”.<\/p>\n

The nurse was taken to Ayr hospital and is in a “serious but stable” condition, Police Scotland said, adding that her family had been informed.<\/p>\n

Speaking at First Minister’s Questions, MSP for Ayr, John Scott, said: “I understand a nurse has been stabbed by a patient”.<\/p>\n

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said the woman’s life was not believed to be at risk, and she would be getting a “full update” as soon as she left the chamber.<\/p>\n

Earlier, NHS Ayrshire and Arran tweeted that the hospital was “on lockdown and no members of staff, patients or visitors will be able to leave the site until advised”.<\/p>\n

In a later update, it said that “movement around the site can now be resumed, with the exception of the courtyard car park in front of addictions services”.<\/p>\n

Police said an “area of car park and an adjacent building had been secured for examination”.<\/p>\n
