Man stabbed during home invasion in Brisbane’s bayside

A group armed with weapons have allegedly forced their way into a house on Brisbane’s bayside, stabbing a man before fleeing.

Emergency services were called to an address on Albatross Street in Victoria Point about 1.30am following reports of a disturbance involving a group of armed people.

According to police, the resident of the home, a 46-year-old man, had confronted the group during an attempted break-in, and he was stabbed several times in the process.

The man was rushed to Brisbane’s Princess Alexandra Hospital in a critical condition, with paramedics treating several of his wounds during transit.

Police say an investigation has been launched to determine whether the assault was targeted.
