A teenager has been charged over the alleged attempted murder of another boy in Glasgow.
The 15-year-old was found seriously injured on Denbeck Street in Shettleston at about 22:30 last Thursday.
He was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital for treatment and has since been discharged.
Police said a boy, 15, had been charged over the incident and is due to appear in court later.
Inquiries into the incident are ongoing.
It comes after a spate of violence involving young people across the central belt in recent months.
Amen Teklay, 15, died following an alleged attack in Glasgow's Maryhill in March.
Three teenagers, aged 14, 15 and 16 have been charged over his death.
Kayden Moy, 16, died following a large disturbance on Irvine Beach in May.
Three teenagers, aged between 14 and 17, have been charged in connection with his death.
A 16-year-old boy was also charged with attempted murder over the alleged stabbing of a 17-year-old on Portobello Beach in Edinburgh days before.
On Wednesday justice minister Angela Constance announced an increase in funding for a centre aimed at tackling crime.
The Scottish Violence Reduction Unit will receive a 7% funding increase to about £1.2m in an effort to address the underlying caused of violence.
Constance said the Scottish government's approach to youth violence was focused on education, adding "effective punishment for offences, appropriate police powers and sustained school and community engagement with young people" were also in place.
She added: "We have made it quite clear that no-one should every carry any weapon including knives at any time, anywhere."
