Man stabbed after violent Maddington brawl

as posted on TheWest

One man was stabbed and another two suffered head injuries after a violent brawl in Maddington last night.

It is understood the altercation first began when a car parked at an Albany Highway property was smashed earlier in the night.

Police then believe the owners of that house travelled to a Hilton Street home, prompting a retaliation attack on another car.

The residents of the Hilton Street house ran outside before a brawl erupted in the street.

One man, believed to be in his 20s, was stabbed in the abdomen and another two suffered head injuries in the attack.

Cannington detectives, teams from the major incident group and forensic officers spent most of the night at the scene.

Investigators found a knife under one of the damaged cars after they had blocked off Hilton Street to all traffic.

It is understood other weapons, including sticks, were used in the scuffle.

The stabbed man went into surgery last night and was in a stable condition this morning.
