Two young women have been charged after another female was allegedly found with stab wounds in the boot of the car they were driving.
A truck driver spotted a woman's hand waving through the broken tail light of a white Holden Commodore travelling along the Hume Highway about 11.30am yesterday.
When police pulled the car over about 20 minutes later, they found a bleeding 24-year-old in the boot, with stab wounds to her knee, thigh and forearm.

Latia Henderson, 18, and Kayley Lee Ketley, 24, were both charged overnight and will appear in court today via video link.
NSW Police will allege Ms Henderson was driving the car, unlicensed, through Pheasants Nest in the Southern Highlands.
She and Ms Ketley are both from the Campbelltown area in Sydney and detectives are working to discover why they were in the region.
Another line of inquiry is whether the alleged kidnapping was drug-related, and if the women are all known to each other.

Ms Henderson has also been charged with: never licensed person drive vehicle on road - prior offence.
