A 15-year-old girl has now rallied and is off the critical list in hospital after being stabbed in the neck, police have said.

The incident happened in the Deans Walk area of Lurgan, just before 9 pm on Friday.

Another teenager has been arrested and is helping police with their enquiries following the knife attack.

A spokesman for the NI Ambulance Service said the teenager received treatment at the scene before being taken to Craigavon Area Hospital.

The street was closed by police while the scene was examined.

Officers have appealed for witnesses to come forward.

A PSNI spokesperson said on Saturday that the teenager’s condition is now described as “stable”.
