Two teenagers have been taken to hospital after a stabbing at Wickman Way in Mangere at 3.45pm today.

An ambulance spokesman said two patients had been taken to Middlemore Hospital.

One of them, aged in his late teens, had a serious stab wound to the neck, and the other patient had sustained minor injuries.

Neither injury was thought to be life-threatening.

Police are currently at the intersection of Wickman way and Chelburn Crescent in Mangere following the incident involving students from Southern Cross Campus, a Year 1-13 school.

Owner of Wickman Way Pricecutter, Jagjit Janjua, said from his grocery store opposite the school gate that he could see crowds of kids leave the school and rush to a nearby carpark.

He said it looked like the whole school was following the fight. He knew something was wrong when a teacher asked him to call police.

"We saw them all go up the road and my wife called police and ambulance."

The dairy is often packed with students after school, he said.

"They're good kids, well-behaved kids, and we treat them like our own kids."
