A 14-year-old Oakville boy is facing charges following an attempted robbery in which one teen pulled a knife on another in the area of Upper Middle Road and Third Line early Saturday morning.

The incident began shortly after midnight when two youths walking through the area were approached by a group of five teenage boys.

Police said one member of the group of five called the victim by name and demanded the backpack he was carrying.

When the victim refused, police allege, a suspect pulled a knife.
