Fight for life

A man suffered life-threatening injuries during an assault at his Dandenong home.

Paramedics took a man in his thirties to The Alfred hospital in a critical condition with upper body injuries following the Friday 15 June incident, which occurred at a McCrae Street address about 11.30pm.

Greater Dandenong CIU detectives arrested a 36-year-old from the same address shortly after.

They charged him with recklessly causing serious injury. He was remanded to appear in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court at a later date.
