A teenager has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 15-year-old girl died and a 16-year-old boy was injured in a suspected 'stabbing'.
Two teenagers, a girl and a boy, were found seriously injured in the Priestpopple area of Hexham in Northumberland at around 5pm on Friday. They had suffered wounds consistent with having been caused by a bladed article.
The girl, 15, was transported to hospital but sadly died later that evening. The boy, 16, suffered serious, non-life-threatening injuries and remains in hospital in a stable condition.
