Four young people have been arrested after a stabbing at WestCity mall in Auckland earlier this month.

On July 1, a fight between two groups happened - which resulted in a 14-year-old and a 17-year-old being stabbed.

"The offenders, aged 14,15,19 and 25 have all been charged with wounding with intent," police said in a statement on Thursday. 

"Other charges include possession of offensive weapons and assault."

The four offenders were due to appear at the Waitākere Youth Court on Thursday.

A police spokesperson said search warrants at three homes in west Auckland resulted in their arrests.

"We would like to reassure the public we are not seeking anyone else in relation to this matter and we thank the community for their assistance during the investigation."

The two victims were at home recovering.
