An arrest has been made in the brutal beating of an 15 year old Hamilton boy.
Police have arrested an 18 year old man in connection with the vicious November 27th beating of Noah Rabbani.
Rabbani was walking from a friend's to his grandparents home in the Rymal Road and Fletcher Road area, when two men got out of a car and beat him with a bat and then stole his backpack.
The teen suffered a cracked skull that required surgery.
The name of the 18 year old has not been released.
Police say the arrest was made during an investigation into residential and violent crimes in the city.
The search for a second suspect continues.
