NSW man stabbed in bed by former partner

A 24-year-old woman is expected to be charged with stabbing her former partner in the NSW Southern Tablelands.

Police say a 42-year-old man let the woman into his house on Martyr Street in Goulburn in the early hours of Friday so she could collect some clothes.

The man returned to bed and the woman allegedly stabbed him in the head and stomach.

He suffered non-life threatening injuries and is at Goulburn Hospital.

Two teenage girls who were in the home were not harmed.

The 24-year-old woman is expected to be charged later on Friday.
