Five people have now been arrested in connection with a fight involving eight men and women in central Wellington last night.

During the fight at a BP service station on the corner of Taranaki and Cable streets, one person received a non-life-threatening stab wound while others were assaulted with weapons.

Two women, both aged 18, two men, aged 18 and 21, and one youth will appear in court this week.

Police said more arrests are likely and any witnesses should come forward.
