Police say that just before 9.30pm, a 23-year-old man allegedly had his personal items stolen by a man brandishing a knife on Cypress Avenue in Surfers Paradise.
Two men chased the robber to Ferny Avenue where an altercation ensued.
The duo recieved non-life-threatening cuts to their hands and arms, before the offender fled the scene.
Police later located the 35-year-old man at a hostel in Pine Avenue at Surfers Paradise.
It’s believed he is assisting police with their inquiries.
