The mum of a 13-year-old boy has told how her young son was 'petrified' after being robbed at knifepoint by a large gang of youths.
When the schoolboy was on his way home last Saturday afternoon, he was cornered by a group of twelve youths, who demanded that he give them his bike and held a knife to his throat.
The incident was reported to police who put an appeal out on social media for information about the incident, while the boy's mum posted a warning to other parents on social media pages.
