MORE suspects are to be interviewed following a brawl in the city that left a teenager in hospital with stab wounds.
Detective Sergeant Col Grenfel said one 17-year-old from Kangaroo Flat had been arrested and others would be interviewed in coming days.
About 100 young people were involved in the fight outside the new taxi rank in Howard Place last Friday.
It’s believed a knife and other weapons including knuckle dusters were used in the fight.
Sergeant Grenfel said the investigation would be ongoing, with a large range of witnesses yet to be spoken to.
“This is a crime of a particularly serious nature. It will be vigorously pursued,” he said.
Witnesses to the incident are urged to contact Bendigo police on 54481300.
