Police have launched an investigation into a “wounding incident” outside of a petrol station in Hobart’s northern suburbs this morning.
Officers were called to the business on Main Road in Claremont just before 10:30am on Tuesday following a “verbal altercation” between a man and another group of people.
A man in his 20s was reportedly wounded by a 41-year-old man following the disturbance and was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The 41-year-old man was arrested a short time later at a nearby business and remains in custody.
