Two teenagers have been charged with stabbing a 17-year-old boy.
Around 10:55 a.m. on Thursday, Kent Police were called to Gillingham’s High Street.
According to authorities, the victim was attacked while he was talking to a group of people outside of a store. He’s still at a hospital in London in a serious but stable condition.
The youths who are being charged are still being held and are scheduled to appear at Medway Magistrates’ Court on Monday.
The two boys, a 16-year-old from Hertfordshire and a 17-year-old from Gillingham, are accused of carrying a knife in a public place and injuring someone with the intent to cause great bodily injury.
While investigations are ongoing, three additional teenagers who were also detained have been freed on bond.
