A man has been rushed to hospital with multiple wounds following an alleged stabbing in a main street of a Sunshine Coast suburb.

The alleged incident occurred on Currie Street in Nambour about 2.30pm on Tuesday, June 24, a Queensland Ambulance post revealed.

A person suffered multiple wounds in the stabbing and they were taken to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a potentially life-threatening condition, the post read.
