FOUR teenage boys have been arrested over an incident in which a 16-year-old actor was stabbed after auditioning at The Pleasance Theatre in Holloway.

One is aged 13, two 14 and another 15.

The 16-year-old victim suffered a punctured lung after he was set upon in North Road at 1pm on Sunday, but his injuries are not life-threatening.

A 21-year-old man arrested earlier this week has been bailed until April 6.
