Three teens involved in a violent attack on a 14-year-old “hunted him down like a pack of feral animals”, a court has heard.
Three teenagers, two now aged 17 and one aged 16, were all involved in a chase on Princess Avenue, St Helens, which ended in the stabbing of a 14-year-old victim. A court heard that the victim was spoken to by police whilst he was recovering from his injuries following the attack.
Andrew Jebb, prosecuting, told the court that on January 19, 2021, the victim was asked by a friend to go and watch a pre-arranged fight, so he and his friends went to the agreed location. The victim was travelling on his mountain bike, and recalled that the weather was extremely bad and it was pitch black at the location.
