Man gets arrested for attempted murder after teen boy is shot
South Yorkshire Police confirmed that a 26-year-old man was arrested by Police Scotland in Aberdeen on Saturday night on suspicion of attempted murder. A 23-year-old woman was also detained on suspicion of assisting an offender. Earlier in the week, two boys aged 15 and 16 were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder but have since been released on bail. A 40-year-old man previously arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender has also been released on bail.
Detective Chief Inspector Emma Knight of South Yorkshire Police said officers were continuing reassurance patrols in the London Road area. She expressed sympathy for the victim and his family, emphasizing the tragic impact of the incident: “He is 16 years of age and should have been looking forward to his future but now, his life has been put on pause as he remains in a critical condition following this horrific act of violence.”
Police are urging anyone with information about the shooting to come forward to assist with the investigation.
