Carey Park stab victim to talk to police

South Western Times

The condition of a 15-year-old boy who was stabbed in a Carey Park home last week was expected to have improved enough for him to be interviewed by police yesterday.

The boy was flown to Fiona Stanley Hospital in a critical condition on Wednesday night following a confrontation where he was left with a stab wound.

Police were called to the Eedle Street house about 9pm after reports of a disturbance.

The teenager was found with life-threatening injuries and taken to Bunbury Hospital before being flown to Perth.

Bunbury detectives confirmed the boy was at a relative’s house at the time of the incident, but were still looking into who the teenager was with.

South West Det. Sen. Sgt John Mundy said it was believed the boy had a confrontation with someone and during that incident he sustained injuries consistent with a stab wound.

Det. Sen. Sgt Mundy yesterday said detectives were still investigating who the other person involved was.

The young boy remained in Perth yesterday, but was due to talk to detectives.

Det. Sen. Sgt Mundy said he anticipated police would make progress on the case yesterday and renewed calls for any witnesses to come forward.

Anyone with information can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
