Two teenagers have gone on trial accused of stabbing a man in Fleckney.
The boys, aged 15 and 16, are accused of attacking the 18-year-old victim at the Edward Road play park on August 20th last year.
He suffered multiple stab wounds and was airlifted to hospital for treatment.
Both boys, who can’t be named for legal reasons, deny charges of wounding with intent to cause actual bodily harm.
One has also pleaded not guilty to charges of attempted robbery and having an offensive weapon in a public place.
A two-day trial at Leicester Magistrates Court has been adjourned and will continue next week.
