Police have charged a man following an alleged assault on the Sunshine Coast.

Emergency services were called to a venue on Currie Street at Nambour about 2.33pm on Tuesday after reports a man had been allegedly stabbed.

Police will allege a 41-year-old Nambour man was involved in an altercation and then ran from the scene.

Police located the man in Petrie Park and took him into custody without incident about 3.43pm.

The 41-year-old Nambour man was charged with acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm and possession of a knife in a public space.

He is due to appear in Maroochydore Magistrates Court on Wednesday.

A 33-year-old Charleville man was transported to Sunshine Coast University Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The men are believed to be known to each other.

Anyone with information or dashcam vision in the area at the time are urged to contact police.

The Queensland Ambulance Service had initially reported that the man was in a life-threatening condition.

Investigations are ongoing.
