Following a trial, justices have found a Standish 17-year-old guilty of robbery and attempted robbery
A Wigan schoolboy has been convicted of mugging and trying to mug the same person three times.
The Standish 17-year-old, who cannot be identified, had denied robbing a named male on March 29 last year and attempting to rob him on both May 15 and September 10 the same year.
But he was found guilty by magistrates following a trial at Manchester and Salford's law courts.
He is currently on conditional bail and will be sentenced by Wigan justices on October 15.
