A man is fighting for life after allegedly being stabbed by a teenage girl during a late night Christmas incident in northern Adelaide.
Police were called to a home on Petherton Road, in Andrews Farm, just after 2.50am on Monday, Boxing Day, to reports of a domestic assault.
Officers arrived and allegedly found a man, 55, from the home suffering from stab wounds.
The man was rushed to Royal Adelaide Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
Footage from the scene showed the blonde girl wearing a Jim Beam singlet as police handcuffed her wrists and walked her outside the Adelaide home.

Both her hands were covered in brown paper bags typically used to keep evidence from being tainted.
The girl was bundled into a police paddy wagon before being driven away from the scene as neighbours watched on.
South Australia Police said the general public did not need to worry, confirming the 16-year-old girl and the man were known to each other.
Police said the girl had spent most of Boxing Day being interviewed.
