AN Irish expat is currently fighting for his life after being stabbed repeatedly in his home in Benalmadena.
The 37-year-old, from Dublin, was attacked in the basement of his own house and sources say he could have a fractured skull.
It is believed friends and family rushed him to A&E after he managed to get up the stairs and tell his partner.

“The incident occurred around 11pm.
“Moments later the victim was taken to hospital by people close to him where he was admitted with several stab wounds.
