Two women have been arrested over separate and unrelated stabbing attacks across Adelaide this morning.

The first incident occurred in Elizabeth South just before 10am.

Police and ambulance officers were sent to Bubner St after receiving reports that a man had been stabbed.

They arrived to discover a 34-year-old man with two stab wounds to his back.

He was treated by paramedics at the scene before he was taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital with non life-threatening injuries.

A 33-year-old Elizabeth South woman has been arrested over the incident and is being questioned by police, who say the attack is not random and the woman and man know each other.

The second stabbing occurred at Queenstown just after 10am.

Emergency services responded to a report that a man in Simpson Ave had been stabbed.

The man suffered a facial injury and was also taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital with non life-threatening injuries.

Police found an 18-year-old woman at the scene and arrested her.

She is currently being interviewed.

Police again said the man and woman knew each other and the incident was not random.

They ask anyone with information about either incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or report it online at crimestopperssa.com.au.
