Three teens have been charged over an alleged stabbing in the state’s north west last weekend.
Just before 1am Sunday (14 September 2025), emergency services were called to a motel on Alice Street, Moree, following reports of an alleged stabbing.
Officers attached to New England Police District were told about five individuals allegedly forced entry into a room before they were confronted by a 52-year-old man.
An altercation occurred, during which the man was allegedly stabbed in the torso and arm.
Four of the group fled the scene prior to police arrival.
The man was treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics before being taken to a hospital in a stable condition where he remains.
Following the incident, police arrested and charged two 13-year-old boys over the alleged stabbing, and they remain before the courts.
Following inquiries, strike force detectives arrested three teens – two 15-year-old boys and an 11-year-old boy – at Tamworth Police Station.
All three teens were charged with special aggravated break and enter and commit serious indictable offence (wound).
The teens were refused bail to appear before children’s court today (Friday 19 September 2025).
