“One of the youths had suffered a suspected stab wound to the upper body, another had a laceration to the back and the third a laceration to the arm,” police said in a statement.

“All three were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.”

Six teenage boys were arrested at the scene and the investigation is ongoing.

It’s understood the fight broke out in the food hall of the shopping centre in Melbourne’s northeast.

Two of the boys were taken to the Royal Children’s Hospital with upper body injuries in serious but stable conditions, a Victorian Ambulance spokesperson said.

The third was taken to Box Hill Hospital in a stable condition.

The incident comes just a fortnight after a 16-year-old boy died after allegedly being stabbed at another shopping centre in Melbourne.
