Six teenagers have been charged with murder following the death of a 14-year-old boy. Gordon Gault died six days after being discovered with stab injuries in the Elswick area of Newcastle.
Shortly after his death a number of arrests were made. On Tuesday Northumbria Police rearrested six males, aged 16 or 17, and today said they have now been charged with murder following the incident on November 9 last year.
The teenagers, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were appearing before North Tyneside magistrates on Wednesday.
