Detectives have charged a man following investigations into a wounding at a shopping centre on Hooker Boulevard, Broadbeach Waters in November.
About 5.30pm on November 7, a man allegedly slashed a 19-year-old security guard’s hand with a knife after stealing three handbags from a luxury store in the centre.
The security guard required treatment in hospital for his injuries.
