Four charged with attempted murder after teen stabbed in Brisbane's Queen St Mall

Four men have been charged with attempted murder over an alleged altercation in Brisbane's CBD on Friday night that left a 16-year-old with multiple stab wounds.

Police were called to the scene on Queen Street about 10.30pm after reports of a disturbance.

When officers arrived, they found a 16-year-old boy who had been punched and had puncture wounds to his torso and back.

The teen was taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital.

Yesterday police charged two 18-year-olds and two 19-year-olds with one count each of attempted murder, armed robbery, acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm and going armed so as to cause fear.

All four men are expected to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court today.
