'I've just stabbed him sir...' - Teen who brought knife into school stabbed fellow student in classroom revenge attack
A teenager who brought a knife into school stabbed a fellow student in the classroom in a horrifying 'revenge' attack. The 13-year-old boy attacked his victim, 14, with a pair of scissors after harbouring a 'grudge' against him.
The boy then shouted 'I'm going to kill you, I'm going to stab you," prosecutor Aubrey Sampson said. The victim threw a punch back before the 13-year-old cut him with the scissors a second time, on his eyebrow. As he was escorted out of school the defendant 'whispered' to a teacher: "Please help me, I've got a knife in my bag." When he was questioned by police the boy admitted causing the injuries, and claimed his victim had pushed him the day before.
"Nothing could be further from the truth. It is the bitter experience of these courts that once a knife is carried, there is always a risk they can be produced, with fatal consequences. "There is no doubt that he recognises he could lose his liberty, and ultimately he would accept such a punishment," Mr Friend said.
