Five teenagers were stabbed after a wild melee broke out near a Queens school Monday afternoon, police said.
Two 15-year-old boys, one 16-year-old boy and two 17-year-old boys all suffered stab and slash wounds following the fight on a Far Rockaway street corner, the NYPD said.
The boys were part of a large group of teenagers who began brawling around 4 p.m. near Mott Avenue and Central Avenue — just blocks away from M.S. 53 and Success Academy- Far Rockaway, according to cops.
It’s unclear if the teens involved were students at either school.
One of the 17-year-olds was stabbed in the left thigh and rushed to Jamaica Hospital by EMS and the other was slashed in the left cheek and taken to St. John’s Episcopal Hospital.
One of the 15-year-olds was slashed in the right hand and brought to St. John’s Episcopal Hospital as well.
Police initially reported just the three injuries, but the bloody mess didn’t stop there as they later learned two other teenage boys who suffered lacerations in the same fight walked into St. John’s on their own.
The 16-year-old boy was slashed in the right thigh and right bicep and the second 15-year-old victim was slashed in the chest, police said.
All five teens were listed in stable condition, according to cops.
Police have not made any arrests and the investigation is ongoing.
What were the Demographics of the individuals involved? Why is this now left out of all reporting? Its no wonder the media is floundering since they only tell half the story and half of that is all made up crap what is wrong.
When tbey catch them. No deals no reduced chatges full attempted murdet tried as adukts in juvenille till.18 then on to hard cord prison
Why is the color of their skin important? Just to satisfy your likely racist views?
Important is that this happens in NYC where guns are not as ubiquitous as in Texas or Florida and contrary to those state…..these kids survive
Why would the ethnicisity of the ones hurt have to be hid, are they scared to have the truth come out?
were the knives black? semi-auto, assault knives? There needs to be a 5 day waiting period and a 21 year old age limit. THAT will stop all this needless violence and White supremacy
which “White person” is going to be blamed for this one?
