Brussels (24brussels) – On August 4, 2025, around 12:30 a.m. near Brussels’ Tour & Taxis, a 33-year-old man was stabbed three times on Havenlaan. The attacker fled the scene; police and prosecutors are currently investigating and reviewing security footage.

The victim was found injured by emergency workers, who promptly transported him to the hospital. His current medical status remains unknown as doctors continue to assess his injuries. Police are actively working to piece together the circumstances surrounding the incident.

Background of the Stabbing near Brussels’ Humanitarian Hub

This incident occurred close to the Humanitarian Hub, a center that supports migrants, asylum seekers, and homeless individuals. Local law enforcement stated that the area often has a significant number of vulnerable people, but it is also known to attract troublemakers.

The investigation includes efforts to determine any connections between the victim and the attacker regarding the Hub. Authorities are currently searching for the assailant, who fled the scene shortly after the attack. Brussels’ public prosecutor has initiated a formal investigation aimed at capturing the perpetrator.

Forensic experts have gathered evidence at the attack site, while the police are scrutinizing video recordings and interviewing witnesses to gain more insight into the events that transpired.

It is worth noting that a similar stabbing occurred last year in close proximity to the same location on Havenlaan. In that case, a man faced a late-night attack that resulted in serious injuries, and the suspect was apprehended weeks later following an extensive police investigation.
