NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
A 14-year-old boy has died six days after a suspected stabbing in Newcastle.
Gordon Gault was assaulted during an ‘altercation’ involving a number of people in Elswick around 6.30pm on Wednesday last week, Northumbria Police said.
He was found by an ambulance crew near Elswick Road and taken to hospital, but died last night.
Three teenagers, aged 15, 16 and 17, have since been arrested on suspicion of wounding with intent to commit grievous bodily harm.
