A man is reported to have been stabbed after challenging a group of youths who had climbed onto a neighbour’s car.

The victim, a man in his 30s, required hospital treatment for multiple puncture wounds to his groin after the altercation, in Springfield Road, Edenbridge, on October 27.

The weapon used was thought to be a bike spoke.

A suspect was arrested later that same day and bailed pending further inquiries.

Yesterday (June 24), a 15-year-old from Newham, East London was charged with causing grievous bodily harm.

He has been bailed, with conditions, to attend Medway Magistrates’ Court on August 6.
