A man has been taken to hospital after an alleged stabbing in Nambour last night.

A Queensland Police Service spokesperson said the incident occurred in Nambour about 11.30pm.

“Police and emergency services were called to a Currie Street business following reports a 30-year-old Maroochy River man had been assaulted,” they said.

“Investigations indicate the 30-year-old man sustained a number of puncture wounds after becoming involved in an altercation with an unknown man out the front of the business.

“The unknown man fled the scene before police arrival.
