    A third boy has been charged in connection with the rape of a teenage girl in Bolton.

    The 15-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with two counts of rape.

    He has been bailed to appear before Manchester Youth Court on Monday 22 October 2018.

    The charge relates to an incident on Wednesday 26 September, when a teenage girl had been raped in Heywood Park a short time earlier.

    Two teenage boys – aged 16 and 17 – have also been charged with rape and will appear alongside the 15-year-old.
