Updated ,first published
Two teenagers, both 14, have been charged with murder following the death of 15-year-old Angus Beaumont, who was stabbed in the chest in Redcliffe on Friday night.
Police alleged the 15-year-old boy was stabbed in what was believed to be an unprovoked attack.
The boy was allegedly stabbed when three males confronted a group of four teenagers in a car park off Anzac Avenue in Redcliffe about 8.10pm.
He was rushed to Redcliffe Hospital but could not be saved.
On Sunday, police confirmed they had charged two boys, from Kingston and Logan Central, with murder and attempted armed robbery.
Detectives from the Moreton crime group and state homicide squad were investigating a third male's involvement, releasing CCTV footage of the person on Monday morning.
However, in a statement on Monday night, police confirmed the third man shown in security camera footage had contacted detectives and been eliminated as a person of interest in the investigation.
