Armed police responded to a 999 call of a violent fight at McDonald's around 4.30pm on October 14 and were on scene within four minutes as horrified diners fled the restaurant.
A Northamptonshire Police spokesman later said a 17-year-old had been the victim of a knife attack and sustained injuries which were "not life-changing or life-threatening".
