Three days after the start of the school year, four teenagers were stabbed Monday afternoon outside a high school in the Bronx, New York.
Three victims, ages 15 and 16, were stabbed outside Herbert H. Lehman High School shortly before school let out, while a 17-year-old boy was shot in the hand.
The victims, all students of the school, were taken to hospital where they were in a stable condition, the New York Post.
The suspect, who has not yet been arrested, is believed to be a student at the secondary school, according to the police, who specified that the attack did not take place on school premises.
Two other students were arrested and taken into custody for disturbing the peace after a fight that was unrelated to the stabbing, local police said.
