An 18-year-old man has been killed in a violent clash in Perth between two groups using baseball bats and metal bars.
Police cordoned off Germaine Way in east suburban Lockridge after a brawl broke out involving about 20 people just after 1am (WDT) on Monday.
Three seriously injured men were taken to Royal Perth Hospital and Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.
An 18-year-old later died from his injuries, another is in a serious but stable condition with stab wounds and the third has serious head injuries.
One of the groups, comprising up to six to eight men, went to a Germaine Way address following an earlier incident, police said.
"They were confronted by a group of 10 to 15 people who came out of the house armed with weapons, described as baseball bats and iron bars," a police spokesman said.
"A brawl ensued between the two groups."
The two injured and one dead man were from the visiting group.
Detectives investigating the incident have yet to make any arrests and are not currently interviewing anyone of interest.
