They allege both victims were stabbed during the assault and suffered non-life-threatening injuries.

Police have said the stabbing took place off school property and both victims were students.

Police say five boys, ranging in age from 12 to 15, were each charged with two counts of robbery with an offensive weapon, two counts of assault causing bodily harm and one count of possessing a weapon dangerous to public peace.

They say the suspects are scheduled to appear in court next month.
