A motorcyclist was stabbed in the back during an alleged road rage altercation in inner Adelaide last night.
Emergency services were called to Main North Road at the Gepps Cross intersection in Blair Athol about 9pm after witnesses reported a “violent altercation” at the traffic lights between two occupants of a black VW Golf and the rider of a black Suzuki motorbike.
Police and paramedics arrived to find the rider of the motorbike, a 21-year-old Pooraka man, with a stab wound to his lower back.
He was taken to hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
The two occupants of the VW Golf fled the scene and the car was last seen travelling north on Port Wakefield Road.
Police have since spoken to the registered owner of the VW and have seized the vehicle for forensic examination.
The investigation is ongoing.
Police have labelled the fight as a road rage incident.
Anyone who witnessed the incident who has not yet spoken to police, or anyone with dash-cam footage is urged to contact Crime Stoppers at www.crimestoppers.com.au or phone 1800 333 000.
