Police investigating a stabbing incident at a party in Napier last Saturday night are still seeking the assailant.
A police spokesperson said an investigation into the incident, which happened outside a house in Plowman Cres, Onekawa, around 11.30pm, was continuing.
About a dozen young people were involved in a confrontation, which police said was believed to have started at the back of the property before moving out on to the street.
A 19-year man received two knife wounds and was taken to Hawke's Bay Hospital.
He was expected to be discharged today.
