Stabbed in his sleep

A 40-YEAR-OLD Noble Park man could have permanent damage to his sight after he was assaulted while sleeping at a house party.
Police are appealing for witnesses to the incident, which occurred about 12.30am on 2 December at a home in Ellt Crescent, Noble Park.
Greater Dandenong CIU Acting Detective Sergeant Luke Kirton said the attacker stabbed the victim with a sharp object as he slept on a couch, causing a laceration and serious damage to his right eye that required surgery.
“There’s a possibility of permanent damage,” he said.
He said several people were at the home at the time, and urged them to come forward.
Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 with any information.
