Trial set for boy, 16, on attempted murder charge
A date has been set for the trial of a 16-year-old boy who denies the attempted murder of another teenager in Holbeach.
Officers were called to Spalding Road at about 01:50 BST on Sunday 28 July where a 16-year-old boy, who cannot be named because of his age, was found with serious injuries, Lincolnshire Police said.
The arrested teenager, who also cannot be named, appeared at Lincoln Crown Court on Monday.
His trial is due to begin on 13 January and is expected to last two weeks.
The teenager was remanded back into the secure care of the local authority.
A further pre-trial hearing will take place at Lincoln Crown Court on 6 January.
Lincolnshire Police previously asked the public not to speculate on the circumstances of the incident while it continued its investigation.
The force also appealed for witnesses and anybody in the area at the time who may have seen the incident to get in touch.
