Officers were alerted after a 40-year-old man arrived at Queanbeyan District Hospital seeking treatment after an artery was severed in his left forearm about 11am on Friday.
The man was transferred to Canberra Hospital where he has undergone surgery.
He is reported to be in a stable condition.
Police established a crime scene at a home in John Bull Street, but there was no one at the premises.
