A Tarneit teenager has been charged with murder following the death of a youth in St Albans last year.

The 15-year-old boy was arrested by members of Echo Taskforce on Bourke Street yesterday afternoon.

The boy was interviewed in relation to an incident at the Keilor Plains Railway Station on December 22, 2019, where a 17-year-old South Australian boy was allegedly assaulted and later died.

The Tarneit teenager has been charged with murder and will face a Children’s Court.
