A woman and teenage boy have been rushed to hospital with stab wounds following a brutal armed home invasion.

South Australia Police say the attack happened in the Gulfview Heights suburb in Adelaide’s northeast about 3.45am on Wednesday.

Police say the 53-year-old woman and 17-year-old boy were inside a home when they were assaulted by a group of armed males.

“Police were called to a home on Nelson Rd after reports that a group of armed males forced entry into the property and stabbed two occupants,” a police spokesperson said.
