Teen on trial for 17-year-old's alleged murder of Ethan Hoac in Melbourne

A 17-year-old boy is on trial in Victoria's Supreme Court for the June 2023 murder of 14-year-old Ethan Hoac in Melbourne's northwest. Prosecutors allege the teen drove the vehicle used to run down Hoac before two companions stabbed him 30 times with machetes on Furlong Road in St Albans. The defence argues the attack was spontaneous rather than planned.
