A 16-year-old has been charged with wounding with intent and possession of a bladed article after an 18-year-old man suffered injuries at an address in Carlisle.
Cumbria Police were contacted at around 9.50pm on Wednesday (28 Oct) by a member of the public reporting they had seen a teenage girl running away from Melbourne Park carrying a knife.
Police attended an address in Botcherby Avenue where they found an 18-year-old man with multiple stab and cut injuries. He was taken to hospital with injuries not believed to be life-threatening or altering.
He remains in hospital this morning (30 Oct).
A 16-year-old, who cannot be identified due to her age, was arrested following the incident. She has now been charged with the two offences and remanded to appear before Carlisle Magistrates’ Court today.
