A 17-year-old girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has now been charged with assault occasioning grievous bodily harm, possession of a knife in a public place and possession of a Class B drug.

She appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday (1) and will next appear at the same court on August 16.

Detective Sergeant Lauren Morgan, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “We responded quickly to this incident and I hope this arrest and charge offers reassurance to members of the public.

“Carrying a knife can have tragic consequences and the force is committed to taking weapons off the streets and keeping people safe.”
