Police have arrested a 17-year-old boy, after a man was wounded at Robina this afternoon.
It will be alleged that around 11.15am, a 26-year-old Southport man and friend were riding electric scooters along a footpath running parallel to Robina Town Centre Drive, when they were approached at the intersection of Collyer Quays by a masked male armed with a knife.
Without speaking, the male has allegedly slashed the knife towards the pair as they rode past, resulting in the 26-year-old man sustaining a minor stab-wound to his right armpit.
The male then allegedly chased the pair for a short distance, before they managed to ride away and notify police.
Police attended the scene and patrolled the area, arresting a 17-year-old Robina boy at Huntingdale Crescent around midday.
The 26-year-old Southport man was treated by paramedics at the scene, before he was transported to the Gold Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.
Investigations continue.
