Detectives have charged a 16-year-old boy with acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm following an investigation into a disturbance involving a 43-year-old man at Springfield on Wednesday.
It will be alleged around 2pm the boy attempted to strike the man with a knife during an altercation with him at the Danube Street residence.
Just before 2.30pm police responded to the incident which involved officers discharging service firearms at the 16-year-old who was armed with a knife at the time.
The boy was transported to the Princess Alexandra Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries and has since been released. The boy was charged on Saturday afternoon.
