A teenage boy was taken to hospital for treatment of a facial injury.
Chief Inspector Hamish Rawcliffe said, “We are aware of third-hand rumours in circulation of a knife being seen but I want to make it clear that these are uncorroborated by our enquiries, and that no knife was used in this incident. We are looking to establish the circumstances.
