On June 26, a deadly stabbing occurred in Melbourne’s north-west, and the victim has been identified as a teenager named Ethan Hoac.
Following the alleged stabbing death of a 14-year-old kid in Melbourne’s northwest, three adolescents have been charged with murder.
On June 26, at around 11 p.m., Ethan Hoac was allegedly hit by a car while returning home with two companions on Bailey area in St. Albans, a quiet residential area.
He allegedly suffered stab wounds after being attacked by two masked men who got out of the car and left him on the road.
Paramedics at the site provided care for Hoac, but he passed on en route to the hospital.
After executing search warrants in Wyndham Vale, Deer Park, and Fitzroy yesterday, police detained an 18-year-old Tarneit man, a 17-year-old boy from Wyndham Vale, and a 17-year-old boy from Deer Park.
The three men will appear in a children’s court today after being accused with murder.
Hoac attended Braybrook College in Braybrook and was remembered as a “sweet and amazing friend” by family members.
Physically unharmed were the two teenage males who were with Hoac at the time of the incident.
They escaped the area and called the police right away.
