Two men have been stabbed in a confrontation with a group of men at Granville overnight.
About 8.45pm last night, two men in a white Toyota van parked in Elizabeth Street and met with two other men on motorised scooters.
The group had been in the area for about an hour when two men, aged 35 and 33, who lived nearby approached the group and asked them to turn off the vehicles’ lights.
Police have been told a fight broke out between the two groups and a man from one of the vehicles produced a knife.
The older man was stabbed in the stomach and leg and the younger man was stabbed in the arm and chin.
The men fled the scene and emergency services attended.
The injured men were treated at the scene before being transported to Westmead Hospital in a serious but stable condition.
A crime scene was established and officers from Cumberland Police Area Command commenced an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the incident.
