A Good Samaritan is fighting for his life after he was stabbed multiple times while trying to break up a wild brawl in the heart of Brisbane’s party precinct.
The French national was with friends outside a bottle shop near the corner of Wickham and Brunswick streets in Fortitude Valley shortly after 3.30am on Friday when they saw a fight break out.
He stepped in to intervene but suffered ‘significant’ wounds to his torso.
Harrowing photos show the seriously injured Good Samaritan lying on the ground, being comforted by a friend, while being treated by paramedics.
He was rushed to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a potentially life-threatening condition.
‘Two people were fighting, and he was right in the middle and he got stabbed, I think, three times and he started bleeding a lot,’ his friend Hugo told Seven News.
