London police are searching for three male suspects and have a fourth in custody on weapons charges after a group of boys were surrounded and attacked in north London Wednesday evening.
Police said a 16-year-old was arrested Thursday at his home after the victims and multiple witnesses reported the suspects, wearing ski masks, surrounded the boys on the south side of Sunningdale Road, between Richmond and Adelaide streets.
A 13-year-old boy was stopped by the suspects, police said, and was struck on the head with a handgun carried by the teenager currently in custody.
