14-Year-Old Girl From Scotland Charged After Carrying Weapons, Allegedly To Defend Sister From Migrants
News is circulating that a Scottish 14-year-old girl was carrying weapons, allegedly to protect her sister from an immigrant who reportedly harassed her. However, it was the teenager who ended up being arrested and charged.
A 14-year-old girl has been charged in Dundee after police responded to reports of a teen carrying a bladed weapon near St Ann’s Lane. While official statements remain brief, accounts circulating across social media and community groups suggest the circumstances may have involved the teenager intervening to protect her younger sister from immigrants.
Police Statement
Police Scotland confirmed that officers were called to the Lochee area around 7:40 p.m. on Saturday after receiving a report of “a female youth with a bladed weapon.” A spokesperson said, “Officers attended and a 14-year-old girl was charged in connection," adding that "She will be reported to the relevant authorities.”
Online Accounts of the Incident
The case began circulating widely on X, where several accounts framed the arrest in starkly different terms than mainstream coverage. One user on the site, @RightAngleNews, wrote that the "14-year-old girl" was "forced to brandish a knife to defend herself and her friend against a migrant who attempted to assault her near St Ann’s Lane in Dundee, Scotland.” The teens are shown in a viral video uploaded to X, with one girl carrying an axe and a knife.
Both teens are visibly distressed as grown men stand around them. One of the girls can be heard yelling, “Don’t f*cking touch her, she’s f*cking 12.”
Further traction came from @TheGriftReport. The account wrote that the girl had been arrested while trying to defend her sister after the man "FAILED to chat up her 12-year-old sister.” In a follow-up post, the same account said the incident involved an immigrant recording the girls, and that multiple police vehicles responded to Balgay Street car park.
Meanwhile, @Basil_TGMD says the incident is “getting worse,” claiming that the teenager had been arrested despite intervening against “a Muslim man trying it on with her.”
Claims were also echoed on Facebook. A widely shared post by a user named Abbie Summer read, “My daughter’s friend who is 13 years old just got attacked by these 2 people in Lochee! They were trying to chat up this girl’s 12-year-old wee sister so she told them to leave her alone and these 2 jumped on her! My daughter was with her and called the police. Her friend is 13 years old and in hospital now!” The post attached photographs of a man and a woman and alleged that they “conveniently can’t speak English anymore,” yet had no issue speaking the language when "perving on a 12-year-old girl."
At present, the only details confirmed by Police Scotland are that a 14-year-old girl has been charged with possession of a bladed weapon in Dundee and will be reported to the authorities.
