Hollyoaks has aired a dramatic arrest following the violent incident involving Oscar Osborne.
This week, Ro Hutchinson’s bullying ordeal continued to escalate, as Arlo threatened him to do his coursework.
Ro grew tired and decided to fight back against his bully, and in The Dog flat he brandished a knife he was carrying for protection.

The pair ended up in a tense scuffle, and when Oscar arrived to give Ro some homework, he was caught up in the situation and got stabbed.
What to Read Next
In tonight’s episode (February 18), as Arlo ran off, Diane demanded for Ro to call an ambulance for Oscar. She then phoned Nancy to tell her what had happened, and she and Darren rushed to the scene.
The Osbornes waited for news on Oscar’s CT scan results, as he hit his head on the ground when he fell.
Oscar suddenly haemorrhaged and was taken into emergency surgery. The operation went well, but his cochlear implant was damaged, and Nancy was concerned about her son not being able to hear when he woke up.

Meanwhile, as the police investigated the crime scene, Diane assumed that Arlo had stabbed Oscar, and she confronted Tony about his relationship with Marie leading to this horrific incident.
As both Ro and Arlo waited at the police station, Diane and Marie clashed over the incident, with Diane bringing up Abe’s string of crimes to prove her point.
Ro was interviewed by Donny, accompanied by Tony and Diane. Donny explained the seriousness of Oscar’s condition, and that he was in intensive care because someone was carrying a knife.

Donny asked Ro who the weapon belonged to, and while Diane expected him to say Arlo, the guilt got the better of Ro and he admitted that the knife was his and he stabbed Oscar.
Tony and Diane were heartbroken as Ro explained the situation before being cautioned by Donny. He was forced to use his deadname before he arrested Ro on suspicion of assault, and the teenager was taken away.
