A 15-YEAR-OLD boy has been arrested after another teen was stabbed eight times in Plumstead.

Police were called at around 2.15pm on September 10 to the incident in Herbert Road where a 16-year-old had been knifed.

Officers say a group of young black men described as in their late teens and wearing dark clothes attacked the victim at the junction with Ripon Road.

Despite numerous stab wounds, the boy's condition is described as stable.

A 15-year-old has arrested in connection with the attack and has been bailed to return to a south east London police station next month.

Anyone with information should contact Plumstead CID on 020 8284 9954 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Bailed? What, so he can go out and stab someone again? Absolutely ridiculous.

The two Manchester Police women who were lured into a trap then murdered last week were the victims of a man who was also on bail for two earlier separate murders.
The thing that these magistrates learn from history, is that they learn nothing from history.

How about this 'fast track' justice that crops up from time-to-time being installed permanently - arrest / court / sentence in double quick time?
