Homicide Squad detectives have today arrested a woman in relation to the stabbing death of a 15-year-old boy at Minchinbury last year.
Hayden Burnes, 15, suffered severe stab wounds at an industrial estate at Marieanne Place, Minchinbury, about 8.30am on Monday, December 5, 2011, and died as a result of his injuries.
