A man has been charged after a woman was stabbed outside a Melbourne shopping centre.

Emergency services rushed to Westfield Fountain Gate in Narre Warren, in the city’s south-east, just after 5pm on Sunday.

They found a 35-year-old woman with stab wounds.

Victoria Police believe the woman was stabbed with an “edged weapon” near a bus stop outside the shopping centre.

The woman was treated at the scene by paramedics before she was taken to hospital for treatment to non life-threatening injuries.

After a search of the nearby area, police found the man and arrested him.

The 34-year-old Croydon man was charged with intentionally causing injury, possessing a controlled weapon and theft.

He is due to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday
