A fight broke out between four males at Elizabeth City Centre in Adelaide’s north just after 2pm (ACDT), leading to the centre’s alarm being sounded and the area being locked down.
A 16-year-old boy was stabbed in the leg and has been taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
A 20-year-old man was stabbed in the abdomen and is in a stable condition, according to police.
