A 17-year-old has been charged in relation to one of the incidents, with Queensland Police Detective Superintendent Andrew Massingham calling the attacks 'particularly violent.'
Three people were stabbed, with one suffering a collapsed lung, in a spate of"brutal" attacks in Brisbane early Sunday morning according to Queensland Police.
The man had been stabbed in the back and when attended to by paramedics from Queensland Ambulance services it was discovered he had suffered a collapsed lung. Authorities then received two further calls for help within ten minutes, with all three stabbings taking place around Brisbane's nightlife district.He had a"serious" wound, with part of the large knife used to stab him still lodged in his abdomen.The third victim was a 23-year-old who suffered"significant" knife wounds to his right arm as well as"extensive" facial injuries.
Detective Superintendent Massingham said police believed the attacks were carried out by a group of up to five men, who had put on balaclavas and appeared intent on robbing their victims as they left pubs and bars. Police will allege the teenager stole a gold necklace from the 21-year-old found on the corner of Constance and Anne streets while one of the other members of the group stabbed him in the abdomen.
