Sergeant Karie Cochrane says one man is in the hospital with what she calls very serious injuries and police are treating the assault as a major crime. "The condition is fluid it's changing by the minute, I'm getting constant updates. Definitely serious injuries."
VicPd received multiple 911 calls around 2 O'clock Saturday afternoon and closed off Mason Street for several hours as they investigate the assault.
VicPD stress they do not believe the public is at risk and that the victim and the attacker are known to each other.
