Man to appear in Auckland court after stabbing during fight at Glenfield property
A man is due to appear in court today after a stabbing during a fight at a North Shore property.
Police say they were called to Valley View Rd, Glenfield, just before 8pm yesterday evening after a person had been assaulted. They found a man with a stab wound.
“Based on our enquiries, parties known to each other had been gathered at the address when an altercation took place, resulting in the man receiving his injuries,” Waitematā CIB acting Detective Inspector Megan Goldie said.
A 45-year-old man arrested at the scene had been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
He was due to appear in the North Shore District Court today.
Goldie said the victim remained in a stable condition at Auckland City Hospital.

Waitematā shift commander Senior Sergeant Dean Roberts said officers arrived within minutes and found the victim with a stab wound.
Hato Hone St John sent an ambulance, a critical response unit and an operations manager to the scene.
One patient was taken to Auckland City Hospital in a serious condition, a spokesman said.
Roberts said one person was in custody and assisting police with their inquiries.
Valley View Rd was temporarily closed while officers examined the scene, but it has since reopened.
Part of the footpath was closed while police continued their investigation.
There was no ongoing risk to the community, Roberts said.
