    ‘I was just shocked’: 13 yo boy accused of stabbing Coles worker in terrifying incident

    What a tragedy, I certainly hope the lady recovers. As for the perpetrator, being a minor he'll probably get a slap on the wrist and be sent home! The judicial system needs to toughen up and make the punishment severe enough to deter others.
