Man charged over stabbing incident

A man has been charged after another man was allegedly stabbed at Woy Woy in a nighttime argument.

Just after midnight on Sunday, January 26, emergency services were called to a home in North Burge Rd, Woy Woy, following reports a man had been stabbed.

Police said they were told that a group of people were socialising in the Woy Woy area when an altercation began between two men, aged 33 and 35, on the corner of The Boulevarde and Brick Wharf Rd.

The group had apparently moved down Brick Wharf Rd, towards North Burge Rd, where shortly afterwards, the 33-year-old man suffered a serious stab wound to the abdomen, police reported.

Officers from Brisbane Water Police District attended and located the 33-year-old with serious injuries.

He was treated at the scene by NSW Ambulance paramedics before he was taken to Gosford Hospital in a critical condition.

The 35-year-old man was also treated at the scene for injuries to his hand and face before he was conveyed to Gosford Hospital in a stable condition.

Upon release from hospital, the 35-year-old was taken to Gosford Police Station where he was charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
