TWO teenage boys appeared from custody at Bradford Crown Court charged with a knifepoint robbery on a Bradford bus.

The defendants, both 16, were remanded in custody overnight after being spotted together, in breach of their bail conditions, it was alleged.

The pair, who cannot be named because of their age, are accused of robbing a boy of his Samsung Galaxy S5 phone on Saffron Drive, Bradford, on March 3.

They are said to have had a Stanley knife and screwdriver with them.

The Recorder of Bradford, Judge Roger Thomas QC, yesterday re-bailed the teenagers to be in court on June 8 for a case management hearing. A trial date was set for June 22.

They must now obey an electronic curfew order and strict supervision requirements.
