Police have charged four teenagers following a fight at a shopping centre in Hoppers Crossing last week.
Police were called to reports of a fight between two groups of youths, including four allegedly armed with machetes and swords, at the centre on Heaths Road about 6.40pm on August 7.
When police arrived, those involved in the fight had left the scene and no victims approached police.
A 14-year-old boy and 16-year-old boy, both from the Wyndham area, attended a local hospital a short time later with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police executed a series of search warrants in relation to the fight on August 11.
A 16-year-old boy and 14-year-old boy from the Wyndham area, a 16-year-old boy from the Brimbank area and 16-year-old boy from the Melton area were arrested and charged with affray.
They have been bailed to face a children’s court at a later date.
Investigations remain ongoing to locate a fifth male believed to have been involved in the incident.
Anyone with information that could assist police with their enquiries is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic.com.au
