A Hillsong Church security guard is in a stable condition after being knocked out in an alleged assault in Sydney.
Hillsong said the "attack" happened near a church in the inner Sydney suburb of Waterloo on Friday night.
A group of young men leaving a church youth meeting were approached by a second group of men while walking to Redfern train station about 9:45pm.
They became involved in an argument and the 33-year-old security guard intervened after an 18-year-old churchgoer was elbowed in the face, NSW Police said.
Police said the guard was knocked unconscious from a blow to the head and a third Hillsong churchgoer, 21, was also assaulted by the group before they left the scene.
The security guard was treated by ambulance officers before being taken to St Vincent's Hospital where he remains in a stable condition.
