An 11-year-old boy has been arrested after around 20 schoolchildren were jabbed with a needle.

Pupils have been advised to have precautionary hepatitis injections after the incident at Moreton Community School in Wolverhampton.

Police said they have identified at least 20 pupils who were jabbed with the diabetes finger-prick pen.

Sergeant Steve Perry, of West Midlands Police, said: ‘Officers have been into the school and identified at least 20 children it is believed were jabbed with the pen.

‘It has a needle nib just 3mm in length so none of the children are seriously hurt and public health officials have advised that the chance of infection is negligible.

‘However, the pupils have been advised to have hepatitis injections as a precaution.’

The 11-year-old was arrested at his home address in Low Hill yesterday morning.

‘Having been questioned by police, he has been bailed until a date in July pending further enquiries,’ Sgt Perry added.
