Argument between Teens Leads to Stabbing

A teenager is left hospitalized after being stabbed last night in Ladyville. According to police reports, around three thirty pm, a sixteen-year-old male and his friends were on their way home from school when they encountered a seventeen-year-old male on Marage Road. The youths allegedly got into an argument that quickly escalated and turned violent after the older teenager procured a knife and proceeded to stab the other minor twice; once to the left of his upper and lower back. The injured minor was then transported by his friends to the K.H.M.H. for treatment while the perpetrator made his escape.
