Police have charged 23 youths over two separate attacks on teenagers in Fife.

Nineteen youths, aged between 14 and 16, were arrested after four teenagers were attacked by a masked gang near Pettycur Beach in Kinghorn on 10 April.

Charges include serious assault, carrying offensive weapons, abduction, mobbing and robbery.

Meanwhile, four males aged between 14 and 18, were charged with assault and attempted murder of a 16-year-old boy in Ravenscraig Park, Kirkcaldy, on 25 April.

Ch Insp Scott Davidson described the incidents as “distressing and extremely violent”.

The attack in Kinghorn was described as “unprovoked” and left all four victims requiring treatment at Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy.

He said inquiries into the Ravenscraig Park attack were ongoing.

Mason Wallace, 18, from Kirkcaldy, appeared at court on Thursday over the incident charged with attempted murder.

He made no plea during his appearance and was committed for further examination.

Ch Insp Davidson urged parents to talk to their children about the impact being involved in anti-social disorder could have on their lives.

He said: “Most of those responsible for these serious incidents have been traced, arrested and charged.

“There is no place for this kind of behaviour in our community.”
