Emergency services are responding to an incident at Engadine where four people - including a police officer - have been injured following a crash and suspected stabbing a short time ago.

Multiple calls were made to Triple Zero (000) after a two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Princes Highway and Old Bush Road about 9am (Sunday 25 August 2024).

Officers attached to Sutherland Shire Police Area Command arrived to find a man - who appeared to be suffering stab wounds - allegedly running from the crash scene. He was taken into custody with the deployment of a Taser.

A male police officer suffered a serious laceration to his left wrist believed to have been incurred during the arrest.

A woman - understood to be a passenger in the crashed vehicle - has been found also suffering multiple wounds.

A fourth person has been found injured. It's unclear at this time what that person's involvement is in this incident.

All four are being treated by NSW Ambulance paramedics.
