During the interaction, the woman purportedly produced a knife and inflicted wounds upon the 15-year-old. Subsequently, the assailant fled the scene on foot. Emergency services were called, and paramedics transported the Avoca girl, who sustained non-life-threatening injuries to her back, to Bundaberg Hospital. Fortunately, she remained in stable condition for further medical attention.

Law enforcement successfully located and apprehended the suspect in a nearby unit block. The woman, identified as a resident of Bundaberg South, faces a charge of acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm. Denied police bail, she was scheduled to appear at Bundaberg Magistrates Court on Tuesday to address the allegations.
