Club stabbing accused remains in hospital, court told

Clark allegedly repeatedly stabbed the waitress at Brisbane's Easts Leagues Club and injured two others before being "swarmed" by leagues club patrons and staff on Thursday.

He had been due to appear in Brisbane Magistrates Court on Monday after his February 13 appearance was adjourned due to him being in hospital.

Clark was on Monday again unable to appear as he was still in hospital, magistrate Joseph Pinder heard.

"He remains there and is having surgery on his hand," the police prosecutor said.

Clark was allegedly told at 2pm on Thursday he had been excluded from the club after giving "unwanted and unsolicited attention" to the waitress, police said.

About three hours later, he allegedly returned with a large carving knife and attacked the woman as dozens of people were dining.

"She was confronted in a hallway where she had little chance to escape," Detective Superintendent Andrew Massingham told reporters.

A 61-year-old chef came to her aid and was stabbed in the hip, giving the woman time to escape to the main dining area where patrons and staff helped her, police said.

"Unfortunately the interactions of the chef only slowed the offender's progress," Supt Massingham said.

The man allegedly pursued the woman and attacked her again in the busy dining area, inflicting defensive wounds to her hands and 10cm cuts to her head and wrist.

A 41-year-old female patron suffered a hand laceration as up to eight people overpowered the man, holding him down until police arrived minutes later.

Clark was also charged with stalking along with acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm, unlawful wounding and going armed to cause fear.

The police prosecutor sought a week-long adjournment to allow time for Clark to be transferred from hospital to the police watchhouse.

"That will give us a better idea," Mr Pinder said.

Clark was remanded in custody to appear in court on Friday.
