A man has suffered wounds to the hands and forearms after he was allegedly stabbed by another man in Adelaide who had barricaded himself into a unit.

The 40-year-old victim was taken to hospital by paramedics yesterday after emergency services were called to the apartment at Sandison Terrace in Glenelg West at about 5.30pm.

Police arrested the suspect, a 47-year-old Adelaide man, after forcing their way into the barricaded property.

After being arrested, the suspect was taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital for assessment.
