A 16-year-old boy has been charged with attempted murder after an incident in Harrogate's Claro Road at the weekend.

The teenager, who cannot be named because of his age, is due to appear at York Magistrates' Court tomorrow morning.

A man in his teens found at the scene with "significant injuries" remains in a critical condition in hospital tonight.

Police were called to the property in Claro Road at 12.15am on Sunday. Paramedics also attended and took the young man to hospital.

There was a heavy police presence around the area yesterday and North Yorkshire Police has urged people not to speculate on social media about the incident.

At the time, Detective Inspector Nichola Holden said:

“We know local residents are likely to be concerned by this incident and I hope the quick arrest of a suspect will go some way to reassure them.
“We believe this to be an isolated event with both teenagers known to each other and we are carrying out a full investigation to establish the full circumstances surrounding it.”
“Several witnesses have been spoken to or interviewed by officers investigating this incident and we are confident we have spoken to everyone we need to. However, if you have any other information which you feel may be relevant, please contact police as soon as possible.”





Anyone with information can call North Yorkshire Police on 101 or, if they wish to remain anonymous, contact the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, quoting reference 1223001009.
