A DOUBLE stabbing in Footscray last month – involving a melee in a McDonald’s car park – has resulted in a Richmond teenager being charged.
The alleged stabbing in Gordon Street, Footscray around 10.30pm on December 29 was followed moments later by another alleged stabbing in a McDonald’s car park in Ballarat Road.
Police executed search warrants at two homes in Richmond and Lalor on Wednesday morning and arrested three teenagers.
A Richmond boy, 16, was charged with intentionally causing serious injury and affray and bailed by police to appear in a children’s court in April.
Another Richmond boy, 17, and a Lalor man, 18, were interviewed but released pending further enquiries.
Police arrested a Bundoora man, 19, last month but also released him pending further investigation.
Police are still investigating the incidents and may charge more offenders.
