Another girl, 14, was referred to a youth outcomes panel following the incident and was dealt with by an out of court police disposal.
The panel, which is a partnership between police, North Yorkshire Youth Justice Service and York Youth Offending Team, decides what action, if any, is most appropriate to pursue.
It encourages a restorative approach with victims and looks to address the causes of the young person’s offending.
