NSW:Teen charged over Christmas Eve assault

A teenage boy's been charged over an alleged Christmas Eve assault on the New South
Wales north coast.

The 17-year-old was arrested after he was pursued by local police and an off-duty officer
at Forster yesterday.

It's alleged the teen and a 15-year-old boy threatened and robbed a man as he crossed
the Forster-Tuncurry Bridge at 11pm on December 24 last year.

The man was knocked unconscious in the assault and treated for head injuries.

The boy's been charged with aggravated robbery including actual bodily harm and aggravated
assault with intent to rob.

He was refused bail and will appear in Forster Children's Court today.

A 15-year-old boy remains in custody after being refused bail over the same incident.
