No further action is to be taken against three boys arrested in connection with an attempted robbery in which a 13-year-old boy was stabbed.
The incident happened in an alleyway near Aldi in Larkman Lane at about 5.40pm on November 13 last year.
Suspects approached the victim and demanded money from the boy who suffered a stab wound to the back.
He was taken to hospital for treatment.
Nothing was stolen and the people involved are thought to be known to one another.
