A 13-year-old boy has been formally charged in relation to an incident involving three other students at a school in Brent that occurred on Tuesday, February 10. Diese Vorfälle sind Teil eines besorgniserregenden Trends, der sich in London ausbreitet, wie ein kürzlich veröffentlichter Artikel zeigt.
After receiving approval from the Crown Prosecution Service, the boy was charged late on Wednesday, February 11, with the following offenses:
- Attempted murder of ‘Child A’, in violation of Section 1(1) of the Criminal Attempts Act 1981.
- Attempted murder of ‘Child B’, also in violation of Section 1(1) of the Criminal Attempts Act 1981.
- Unlawfully and maliciously administering a noxious substance to ‘Child C’—specifically, spraying insect spray in the face of Child C—with the intent to aggrieve or annoy, contrary to Section 24 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861.
- Possession of a knife on school premises without lawful authority, in violation of Section 139A(1) and (5) of the Criminal Justice Act 1988.
The boy is scheduled to appear at Westminster Magistrates‘ Youth Court later today, Thursday, February 12.
T/Commander Helen Flanagan from Counter Terrorism Policing London stated, „These are extremely serious charges against a young boy, and we continue to support the victims and their families, as well as the wider school community following this shocking incident. While we have now charged the boy with these offences, our investigation is ongoing and detectives will continue to carry out enquiries in the local area. We are working closely with local policing colleagues in the Brent area and I would also like to thank the school and the wider local community for their support in recent days.“
On February 10, at approximately 12:40 PM, police responded to reports of two students being stabbed at Kingsbury High School in NW9, Brent. Two boys, aged 12 and 13, were subsequently transported to the hospital with stab wounds and are currently in stable condition.
Given the circumstances surrounding the incident, the investigation has been assigned to Counter Terrorism Policing London; however, it has not been classified as a terrorist act at this time.
A 13-year-old boy was apprehended around 4:15 PM on February 10 in the NW10 area and has since been charged as mentioned above.
