CANBERRA, Oct. 24 (Xinhua) — Three teenagers have been charged over a stabbing at a shopping center in South Australia (SA).
SA Police on Thursday said three males — aged 17, 16 and 14 — have been arrested and charged over the attack at a shopping center on Wednesday.
Police were deployed to the shopping center in the northern suburbs of Adelaide — the state capital — at approximately 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday following reports of a disturbance between a group of youths in the food court.
An 18-year-old boy was stabbed in the torso and taken to hospital for treatment for serious injuries. Local newspaper The Advertiser reported he was stabbed at least three times but was recovering in hospital on Wednesday night after emergency surgery.
SA Police said in a statement on Thursday that the three alleged attackers were found nearby and taken into custody.
All three were denied bail and will face the Adelaide Youth Court on Thursday. The age of criminal responsibility in SA is 10.
The SA Youth Court can sentence offenders younger than 18 who are found guilty to a maximum detention period of three years.
SA Police said that officers would review CCTV footage to identify other people involved in the incident. ■
