The violence erupted on Sunday evening when three men armed with knives demanded the residents of a Forest Lake property hand over an e-scooter.

The scooter had been advertised for sale privately on social media for $2000.

Three men aged 33, 30 and 21 were stabbed during the wild brawl and taken to hospital with puncture wounds.

A dog was killed in the attack.

The alleged attackers, aged 24, 20 and 21, were arrested on Sunday.

The 24-year-old alleged attacker – a man from Goodna – appeared in Richlands Magistrates Court on Monday.

His alleged accomplices have also since been charged and are expected to face court on Tuesday on charges including animal cruelty, attempt to enter premises and threatening violence as well as two counts of wounding.

Both are expected to face a Brisbane court on Tuesday.
