Hunt for attackers after Halloween party stabbings
Police cordons remain in place in Park Road, Chandler's Ford
Police are hunting for attackers who stabbed five teenage boys at a Halloween party in Hampshire.
Officers said an "unknown group" had gained entry to the party at a house in Park Road, Chandler's Ford, and the stabbings happened shortly after 22:30 GMT on Saturday. Three boys aged 16 and two aged 17 were all taken to hospital with serious injuries.
Barton Peveril said it believes two of those attacked are students at the sixth form college. In a statement, it said support was being offered and "our thoughts are with the victims and their families".
Hampshire Police wants to speak to anyone who was there or has footage, including doorbell camera footage, covering Park Road and the nearby area.
In an email sent to parents, the college on the outskirts of Eastleigh, said: "We are doing all we can to support our Barton Peveril Community at this time.
"Students can access support through their student progress advisors and the health and wellbeing team.
"Security is always present at both entrances of the college to ensure that only Barton Peveril College students have access to the campus."
The head teacher of Thornden School in Chandler's Ford confirmed former students had been injured in the incident.
In a statement, Caroline Lowing said: "We understand that some of our former students have sustained injuries and are receiving treatment and support. This news has been deeply upsetting for our school community.
