Karaoke Club Stabbing in Chinatown
Around 1:30AM this morning, an 18 year old man was stabbed numerous times by a group of young men in front of a karaoke club in Sydney’s Chinatown. Police report two groups of males started fighting outside the karaoke club on Factory lane when the 18 year old man intervened whilst coming outside for a smoke.
Inspector Brenton Lee reports from City Central Police saying the 18 year old man tried to break-up the fight:
“An 18-year-old male left the club to have a cigarette outside the premises and there he came across six young males fighting. He then went in to stop the fight occurring and some of those young men produced a knife.”
Friends of the victim managed to hail down a taxi and take him to Macquarie Street, before calling an ambulance. He was then taken to St Vincent’s Hospital and is currently in a critical condition.
Police spoke to a number of witnesses at the scene, but say the motive for the attack is still unclear.
The identity of these men are unknown however, anyone who witnessed this attack or might have any information, please contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
