Two boys charged over Halloween party stabbings
Police were called shortly after 22:30 GMT on Saturday to a home in Park Road in Chandler's Ford where an "unknown group" had gained entry to the event over a garden fence. A 16-year-old from Southampton has been charged with attempted murder. A second 16-year-old, also from Southampton, has been charged with wounding with intent.
The pair, who cannot be named due to their ages, have been remanded in custody to appear at Southampton Magistrates' Court on Friday morning. Police said they have all been bailed with conditions, including locations they cannot travel to and people they cannot communicate with. One of the 17-year-olds remains in hospital in a serious condition and the four others, who were seriously injured, have since been discharged.
