A man has been stabbed with a broken beer bottle and another charged after a fight broke out at a bottle shop in Cooma on the weekend.
At about 8.30 PM Saturday night, Police were called to the Sharp Street bottle shop, where they arrested a local 22 year old man.
A 33 year old man was taken to cooma hospital with cuts to his chest and stomach, and later released.
It's believed that the altercation began between the occupants of a car in the driveway and several customers who were entering the store.
The 22-year-old man was charged with affray and common assault, and given strict conditional bail to appear at Cooma Local Court on 9 January next year.
Yesterday, police interviewed a third, 25 year old man at the bombala police station in relation to the incident.
It's anticipated he will be charged with 'armed with intent to commit an indictable offence and affray.'
Police are continuing their investigations, and say that it's possible that more people will be charged.
