A MAN has been charged with murder following a stabbing in Cooma yesterday (February 15).
The 21-year-old was arrested at about 6am in bushland on Shannons Flat Road, about two hours after two men went to Cooma Hospital with stab wounds.
One of the men, a 38-year-old, who was suffering stab wounds to his abdomen, neck and chest died on arrival.
The other, a 19-year-old, was suffering wounds to his arms. He was treated before being taken to Canberra Hospital where he remains stable.
The offender faces murder and wounding a person with intent to cause grievous bodily harm charges at the Cooma Local Court today.
