A teenager is due to appear in court after a serious assault at a Nottingham shopping precinct.
Officers were called to the Bridgeway Centre, The Meadows, around 5.25pm on Friday (19 July) after paramedics reported a man had been stabbed.
The victim was taken to hospital with injuries which are not believed to be life-threatening.
Officers analysed CCTV footage of the incident and arrested a suspect a short time later.
A 16-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court today (Monday) charged with wounding with intent and possession of a knife in a public place.
Detective Constable Chantelle Rose, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:
“This was a very serious incident and we understand it will have caused concern in the community.
“I hope people can at least take comfort from a robust police response which has seen this suspect arrested, charged and placed before the courts at the earliest opportunity.
“We know a number of people witnessed the incident and we still want to speak to them. If you have not spoken to an officer yet please call 101, quoting incident number 587 of 19 July 2024, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.”
