Three teenagers have been charged in connection with an assault that left a 14-year-old boy with serious injuries.
The boy was attacked in Slateford Green, Edinburgh, at about 8pm on Monday.
He was taken to the city’s Royal Hospital for Children and Young People, where he is said to be in a stable condition.
Police have now arrested and charged two 15-year-old boys and one 17-year-old girl in connection with the assault.
They will be reported to the relevant authorities.
Detective Inspector Gordon Couper said: “Extensive inquiries are ongoing to trace all those involved in this attack.
“I’d like to reassure the public that we have increased high visibility patrols in the area and these will continue over the coming days as inquiries progress.
“I encourage anyone with information or concerns to speak to these officers.
“I would also ask anyone who was in the area at the time of the incident and may have dashcam or private CCTV footage to contact us as soon as possible.”
Anyone with any information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident 2315 of December 2.
