Woman Arrested After Christchurch Incident
Attribute to Detective Senior Sergeant Colin Baillie:
A woman has been charged after a man suffered critical injuries in Christchurch overnight.
About 10.30pm, a taxi driver arrived at a fastfood restaurant on Memorial Avenue to seek help after being stabbed several times. The victim suffered critical injuries but is now serious but stable condition in hospital.
About 15 minutes after Police were called, the alleged offender was taken into custody at a nearby hotel.
Cordons were in place overnight and enquiries into the incident are ongoing.
