A man has been charged with stabbing a “highly intoxicated” victim in a supermarket carpark in Cleeland Street, Dandenong.
Police say the victim and a drunk associate were approached by a stranger walking through the car park about 1.25am on Sunday 30 June.
During a brief exchange, the stranger allegedly slashed the victim’s back with a 30-centimetre carving knife.
The victim was taken to hospital with a “superficial” wound, and soon discharged.
The alleged offender was remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on assault and intentionally causing injury charges.
