Third boy, 16, is arrested after gatecrashers climbed a garden fence and five teens were stabbed at a Hampshire Halloween party
Park Road in Chandler's Ford, where cordons also extended to Valley Road on Sunday afternoon as Hampshire Police appealed on reference number 44260534624 for party guests who had not yet spoken to officers.The party's address was shared on Snapchat, drawing around 70 uninvited guests to a supervised birthday celebration at an £800,000 property, with a group of males climbing the garden fence before stabbing five sixth-form boys in an attack witnesses described as sudden and unprovoked.
A 17-year-old boy is fighting for his life after uninvited males vaulted a garden fence at a supervised party and attacked five guests with knives. A 16-year-old from Bristol became the third suspect to be arrested, detained overnight on suspicion of attempted murder; two others from Southampton — aged 16 and 17 — had been taken into custody on Monday.
The host, a 17-year-old girl, had invited close friends to a supervised gathering, but around 70 uninvited revellers turned up after the event was shared on Snapchat.
Of the five stabbed boys, aged 16 and 17, four have left hospital; the fifth remains in a critical condition.
Police are visiting local schools this week and are asking anyone with video footage to come forward.
