Four teenagers have been charged following an alleged stabbing incident at a shopping centre in Hornsby, Sydney, which occurred around 3pm yesterday. A 21-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman were reportedly approached by two teenage girls and three teenage boys, leading to an assault on the man.
During the altercation, the woman attempted to intervene and was also assaulted. The man sustained a stab wound to his leg, and it is claimed that some of his personal items were stolen during the incident. Emergency services were called to the scene, where paramedics provided assistance, and he was subsequently transported to Royal North Shore Hospital in stable condition.
In the aftermath, three boys aged 16 and a 15-year-old girl were taken into custody at Castle Hill Police Station. The group is facing serious charges, including aggravated robbery, accessory to robbery, and wounding.
