Police have arrested a woman for stabbing a worker at the Ellenbrook Central Woolworths.
The staff member, aged in her 40s, was rushed to Royal Perth Hospital under priority 1, 6PR/Nine News reporter Sarah Smith told Oliver Peterson on Perth Live.
The shopping centre is currently still open while forensics are undertaking an investigation in Woolworths. Police are asking any eye-witnesses who saw a woman running from the store to provide details.
