A teenager arrested after a stabbing at Sunbury Cross shopping centre last week has been charged with several offences.

18-year-old Kenneth Peat, from Ashford, was charged with "grievous bodily harm with intent" and "threatening a person with a bladed article in a public place", Surrey Police said on Sunday (May 23).

He has since been remanded in custody until June 24, where he will appear at Guildford Crown Court.

As the Surrey Comet reported previously, police including armed officers "flooded" to the scene of the stabbing at Sunbury Cross on Wednesday (May 19) after they received reports of teenagers fighting at around 5.10 pm outside Marks and Spencers.

During the fight a 19-year-old man was stabbed with a "large blade", believed to be a machete approximately 30cm long.

He was given first aid in a nearby shop and was taken to hospital where the injury was described as "serious", but "not life-threatening".

Several other teenagers were also arrested in the aftermath of the stabbing.

Police said Sunday that one of them, a 17-year-old from Sunbury, was arrested on suspicion of Section 18- wounding with intent and remains in custody at present.

Earlier in the week, two boys under the age of 18 were also been arrested in connection and have been bailed with conditions.

Detectives investigating the stabbing have said they believe there are "a number of outstanding people with information who are yet to come forward".
