'Police will allege a verbal argument between a 15-year-old male and a 25-year-old man escalated just before 4am, before the youth left and returned with a bottle and a knife and a physical altercation resulted in the 25-year-old being stabbed in the back and wrist. 'Bystanders restrained the 15-year-old boy until police arrived, arresting him." Noosa resident Mandy Lopez reportedly said the attack was "horrible … pretty scary news to hear". She added: "This is a healthy space … It's definitely a safe area, but hearing this news, I feel quite shaken up." Inspector Jason Overland praised the bystanders for stepping in but reminded the people to consider their own safety, reported ABC News. "That's perfectly normal behaviour when something bad happens — people want to help," he said. "It's very difficult to try and say that's the wrong thing to do, but I would just urge caution in those situations, particularly when there's weapons involved." The boy has sinc){kind=link}
