Central Pier stabbing
The Easter long weekend got off to a bad start for one man in Docklands last month when he was allegedly stabbed in the head with a fork.
The incident took place on Central Pier after a large group disembarked from a private function onboard the Lady Cutler at around 11.45pm on April 19.
According to Detective Sen-Constable Adrian Smith around 125 passengers were onboard the boat.
Multiple fights broke out amongst 40 of the passengers after the group disembarked.
The 25-year-old stabbing victim was taken to hospital with a head injury, whilst another man also required medical attention.
Lady Cutler skipper Jeff Gordon said there were no issues with the group during the cruise itself.
He said the incident took place around half an hour after the cruise had ended.
“They didn’t drink a lot, probably less than $20 per head, so I don’t think it was alcohol that fuelled the violence but rather tension within the group.”
According to Detective Sen-Constable Smith, two men were arrested at the scene but charges have not been laid.
Police are appealing for public assistance to identify others who were involved in the fights.
