Officers investigating the incident, which happened at around 8pm on May 17, have now charged a 15-year-old girl from Broadstairs and a 16-year-old boy from Ramsgate with two counts of attempted murder.

The latest charges follow a 17-year-old boy from Canterbury and a 15-year-old boy from Ramsgate each being charged with one count of attempted murder.

The pair who were charged yesterday, who along with the previous two cannot be named due to their ages, have both been bailed.

They are now due to appear at Folkestone Youth Court on Monday.
