Earlier in the week, 9News understands police were investigating whether Carlson pulled out a gun on his attackers at the Love Machine nightclub before he was chased and stabbed.

It’s understood Carlson had links to outlaw motorcycle gangs.

The investigation remains ongoing.

Detectives are appealing for anyone who was on Chapel Street at the time of the attack and may have witnessed the incident, or has any footage, to come forward.
