Bouncer Stabbed Outside Melbourne Venue (UPDATE)

A bouncer was stabbed in Melbourne on Thursday night after two punters were ejected from Melbourne live music venue The Toff In Town, according to Herald Sun.

Reports say two punters were being removed from the venue and became violent, assaulting two staff members before leaving the premises.

One of the assailants later returned to the venue and stabbed a third security guard – who wasn’t involved in the first altercation – in the back with a small knife.

The victim was taken to hospital with minor injuries, and the attacker has yet to be identified.
