A John Jay student was stabbed. Two students were arrested. Fifth Street was closed off for hours on Monday night. There’s a story in the Brooklyn Eagle about it:
PARK SLOPE – Cops arrested a teenage boy Tuesday in connection with a
stabbing in Park Slope Monday, after which a 16-year-old high school
student was hospitalized as the result of multiple knife attacks.Tuesday afternoon, police announced the arrest of a 14-year-old
connected with the attack. Armed with information from witnesses,
detectives apprehended the young suspect at 3:25 p.m. in his home on
Sixth Avenue, a block from where the incident occurred.Cops said they are still searching for two accomplices, two male white Hispanics, ages 14 and 16.
According to eyewitness reports, on Monday afternoon at approximately
2:15 p.m., the victim was standing or walking in front of 460 Fifth St.
when he was approached by a group of other teens. It was not clear what
the dispute was about, and there was no evidence of a robbery attempt,
but cops did say that the victim and the suspect “were not known to
each other.”When the fight was over, the 16-year-old lay bleeding on the street
with multiple stab wounds. EMTs transported him to Lutheran Medical
Center, where he was treated for his wounds, the most serious of which
was a punctured liver. He is listed in stable condition.Because of the ages of the victim and the suspect, police did not
release their identities. It is unclear whether the suspect in custody
will be tried as an adult or as a juvenile, but police did say that he
is facing a charge of Assault 1, a major felony, and misdemeanor
Weapons Possession.Neighborhood blogs Tuesday raised questions about the incident, some
saying the fight was connected to a nearby high school. Police did not
confirm or deny these details.
