It is understood that the three residents involved are known to each other.
Emergency medical technicians provided first aid to the 34 year old man on site, before he was transported to King Edward VII Memorial Hospital via ambulance for treatment of his injury. He was later discharged.
The scene has been processed.
The 29 year old woman was arrested and remains in police custody at this time, pending further inquiries by the Criminal Investigation Department.
A court appearance is anticipated in due course.
