A JUDGE has called for a police probe after a schoolboy bought a dagger on auction website eBay — and used it in a street fight.
The 15-year-old knifed a lad of 17 three times.
The boy had won a bid battle for the knife which arrived by post in Kingsteignton, Devon.
He admitted unlawful wounding and faces sentence at Exeter Crown Court. Judge John Neligan said: “I am shocked.â€
