A man has been rushed to the hospital after being stabbed by two women during a violent carjacking in Melbourne‘s south-east on Sunday night. 

The attack occurred near a strip of shops on Lurline Street in Cranbourne, where the man was assaulted by two women around 8.45pm.

Around five minutes earlier, the same two women are believed to have attempted a carjacking on nearby Sladen Street, but were unsuccessful.

The pair allegedly approached the man, stabbed him, and stole his vehicle, which they then drove to Pakenham, before they were arrested.

The victim, a 35-year-old man from Clyde North who was said to be in the ‘wrong place at the wrong time’, reportedly screamed out for help before stumbling towards a pizza shop.

He the collapsed in the middle of the road where he was bleeding profusely. 

‘It was a stab wound and there was blood everywhere,’ one local woman who performed first aid told Sunrise. 

‘I just put my hands straight on the wound but I was also on the phone (to the emergency services). His hands were all sliced up through his fingers.’

The woman said she didn’t notice a neck wound because of all the blood. 

‘By then other people had come out and I was just screaming for towels,’ she added. 

The man is currently undergoing surgery in hospital for life-threatening injuries. 

‘Police are currently speaking to a 33-year-old Mornington woman and a 28-year-old Carrum Downs woman in relation to the incident,’ a spokesperson for Victoria Police said. 

Anyone with information or anyone with CCTV/dash cam footage is urged to call Crime Stoppers.
