Wednesday morning in their Bronx classroom, a 12-year-old girl was slashed by a classmate. According to police and sources, this occurred just one day after a teenage male was stabbed in the hallway of his Brooklyn high school.
Police sources reported that at approximately 9:40 a.m., the alleged assailant, aged 14, was apprehended subsequent to slitting the pre-teen student in the right leg at J.H.S. 123 James M Kieran School. The altercation appeared to have originated from a dispute on social media.
According to witness Allison Sanchez, when the violence erupted in the sixth-grade classroom, the students’ desperate teacher yelled, “Someone go get help!”
“He went outside to stop the fight, while the rest of us entered the hallway.” “Her mother accompanied the eleven-year-old as she remarked to The Post outside the Soundview school: It was so fast!” “Thereafter, we were sent to a different classroom, where we were required to wait in silence.”
After an eighth-grader involved in an altercation with another girl was brought into Sanchez’s magnet class to “sit here and calm down,” the assault ensued, as she recalled.
Sanchez stated that a few minutes later, another eighth-grader entered the classroom, sat down at that table, and they immediately began conversing. “They subsequently began to fight and began to rearrange the table.” “One of them carried a knife.”
The victim was transported by EMS to Jacobi Medical Center, where her condition was listed as stable.
According to law enforcement sources, investigators were examining whether the violence was precipitated by a dispute that originated on social media.
