Two people have been charged over the alleged stabbing of a teenage boy on New Year’s Eve.

Police were called to a home in the Shellharbour suburb of Albion Park Rail, a short drive south of Wollongong, at 5pm that day.

The caller said a man had been stabbed.

When officers and paramedics arrived, they found the 17-year-old with a stab wound to his shoulder.

He was treated there before being taken to Wollongong Hospital in a stable condition.

A picture from the scene shows three paramedics and a police officer bent over a person lying sideways on the ground outside a home.
