Teenager stabbed in Stockport

A 14-year-old boy has been arrested following a stabbing on a Stockport street.

The victim, a 13-year-old boy, was taken to hospital for treatment but his injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.

The suspect has been arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.
