A teenager has been slapped with assault charges over a stabbing incident in Hoppers Crossing last month, which left a man fighting for life and a boy injured.
The incident happened on Mossfiel Drive in the early hours of the morning on Saturday, November 23.
Police were called to the address, arresting nine people after finding a 23-year-old man with life threatening injuries.
He remains in hospital in a stable condition, while a 16-year-old boy also self-presented to hospital a short time later with suspected stab wounds and was later released from hospital.
All nine men arrested were released after being interviewed, with detectives arresting a 19-year-old man from Hoppers Crossing on Monday night after further investigations.
The man was subsequently charged in relation to the alleged stabbing of the 16-year-old boy.
He has been remanded by police and is expected to appear at the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court.
Police continue to investigate the incident and anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
