<\/p>\nA UKRAINIAN schoolboy was stabbed and two others injured in a racially aggravated attack.<\/p>\n
The boys, aged 13 and one aged 15, were walking towards a bus stop in Niddrie Mains Road, Edinburgh, when a group of eight young people approached them at about 8.30pm on Sunday.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Two youths from the group assaulted one of the 13-year-old boys, leaving him with a laceration to his ear, and other members of the group then attacked the other two Ukrainians.<\/p>\n
The 15-year-old was punched, and the 13-year-old was stabbed.<\/p>\n
The injured boys were rushed to hospital and the incident was reported to police on Monday.<\/p>\n
Officers are treating the incident as racially aggravated and appealed for information.<\/p>\n
Detective Inspector Keith Fairbairn said: "I know there were members of the public in the area at the time of the attack and I am asking them to contact us with any information they may have.<\/p>\n
"We are appealing for details on the group of youths, who were dressed in dark clothing.<\/p>\n
"Perhaps you saw them somewhere else, did you see them running off? Any small piece of information could assist us in identifying those responsible for these attacks."<\/p>\n
Anyone with information is asked to call Police Scotland via 101, quoting incident number 2523.<\/p>\n
