ACT Policing is seeking witnesses after a 15-year-old teenager and 11-year-old child were confronted by a male teenager armed with a pocketknife in Fadden Pines parkland on Saturday afternoon (August 18).
Around 4pm on Saturday, the two victims were jogging through Fadden Pines when they were approached by a male teenager riding a BMX.

He was wearing a black puffy jacket with fur lining in the hood, black track pants and a black flat brim baseball cap. At the time of the incident, he was riding a BMX bike with orange spokes.
