Charges have been laid against a 12-year-old Peterborough girl following two incidents that occurred Sunday evening.
Police were first called to the area of Cumberland Drive and Royal Drive at around 6:45, after a woman walking in the area reported being spat on by a young girl.
About 15 minutes later, near Cumberland Drive and Hilliard Street, a woman riding an e-bike reported she’d be spat on by a young girl. The victim attempted to confront the girl but left the scene to call the police after noticing the girl had grabbed what appeared to be a small knife from another member of the group she was with.
Officers searched the area and located a group of young people including one matching the description given to police.
