Police are looking at a suspected robbery in Nundah following an incident involving a man allegedly stabbed with a kitchen knife.
Following disturbances reported on 4 January 2025, emergency services were summoned to Killeen Street just before 10 am. Arriving, police found a man with non-life-threatening injuries including cuts to his arms and legs and a serious abdominal wound. The man was treated by paramedics at the scene before being transported in stable condition to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital.
Witness Accounts and Investigation
Two people attempting to roll a man over on the ground caught the attention of a nearby resident who heard cries for aid.
The resident quickly realised things had gone out of hand when one of the people started stabbing the man with a kitchen knife.
The resident admitted that at first, he thought the suspects were just looking after the victim.
Before the said resident could act, the suspects left the scene in a car. One of the two suspects, seen stabbing the victim, was described as short in build with a few long dreadlocks.
While investigators look at the events surrounding the incident, a crime scene has been set up on Killeen Street. Police are looking at material taken from the scene, speaking with witnesses, and going over nearby CCTV footage. Forensic experts are also assisting with the gathering and examination of physical evidence.
