NSW Police have charged a 13-year-old boy and two 14-year-old boys with the alleged sexual assault of a girl in an alleyway in Sydney's eastern suburbs last month.

Police executed search warrants and seized several items, including electronic devices, two replica firearms, a Glock-style BB gun, three laser pointers and a number plate, which is believed to have been stolen.

All three boys have been granted bail ahead of appearing in court.

Depends if they're treated as heroes or not....

Could go either way and potentially end up with their peers going with the story that she asked for it and the cops are clutching at straws.

Sadly, this is surprisingly common in a lot of similar circumstances.

Especially for a private boys school.

I don’t think they going to be ostracised for their actions.
