One of the teenagers, now identified as Zac McRae, had suffered critical wounds to his chest and could not be revived at the scene.
The other young man was taken to hospital in a stable condition after suffering stab injuries to his arm and has since been released.
The pair had been stabbed with “kitchen-type” knives and were known to police according to Superintendent Darrin Batchelor, the ABC reported at the time of the murder.
On Tuesday, police executed two search warrants in Dapto and Vineyard in the Wollongong and Hawkesbury regions respectively.
Police arrested a 19-year-old woman at the Dapto address.
She has been charged with murder, concealing a serious indictable offence, contributing to criminal group activities among other charges.
She was refused bail to appear in court on Wednesday where police will allege she drove other alleged offenders to the scene.
