Two teenagers arrested after a three-year-old boy was reportedly hit by an e-scooter have been released without charge.

A 19-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by dangerous driving with a 16-year-old boy also detained.

A spokeswoman said the investigation was now "closed".

But, she added, new information would be "welcome" and could be reported to officers or Crimestoppers.
