One woman suffered stab wounds and another head injuries in an incident last night.
Police were called to Essex Place council flats off Eastern Road, Brighton, at 5pm and found a 36-year-old woman with multiple knife injuries in one room and a 44-year-old woman with head wounds in another.
Both were taken to the Royal Sussex County Hospital, Brighton. Police said neither woman's injuries were life threatening.
The most seriously hurt, the 36-year-old, was said to be stable.
Three men in their 30s were arrested and were helping police with their inquiries today.
The incident is being investigated by officers from the newly-formed Brighton and Hove Anti Victimisation Unit which focuses on domestic, racial and homophobic crimes.
