Five Teenagers Seriously Injured as Gatecrashers Stab Guests at Hampshire Halloween Party: Three Arrested on Suspicion of Attempted Murder
Chandler's Ford, Hampshire — Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary said that at about 10:30 p.m. on Halloween night, October 31, a group of uninvited males climbed over a garden fence to enter a supervised party at a home on Park Road in Chandler's Ford, Eastleigh, and stabbed five invited guests in the garden and surrounding streets. The five victims, three aged 16 and two aged 17, suffered serious injuries and were all taken to hospital.
On November 2, police arrested two boys from Southampton, aged 17 and 16, on suspicion of attempted murder. On November 3, a third boy, aged 16 and from Bristol, was also arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in custody.
Four of the victims have since been discharged from hospital. The fifth, a 17-year-old, remains in critical care in a life-threatening condition.
Detective Chief Inspector Elizabeth Pirie, the senior investigating officer, said the arrests are a significant development and urged anyone who was at the party or has information or footage to contact police on 101, quoting reference 44260534624, or Crimestoppers anonymously. Police cordons remain in place around the address as the investigation continues.
