A 13-year-old boy was injured in a daylight stabbing outside a Bronx supermarket on Saturday, according to police sources.
The teen was stabbed in the stomach at about 5:23 p.m. outside the C-Town supermarket at 1612 Westchester Avenue in Soundview, police sources said.
Emergency medical workers rushed him to Jacoby Hospital on Pelham Parkway following the attack. He was listed in stable condition.
At the scene, blood was visible on the concrete sidewalk as police officers taped off the area in front of the store and began their investigation.
No arrests had been made as of Saturday, and police were continuing to search for the person responsible, sources said.
The attack happened just days after a New York City Schools employee was fatally stabbed in a separate Bronx incident involving a suspect with 13 prior arrests.
Rashaun Shettlewood, 32, a paraprofessional with the NYC Department of Education, was stabbed in the chest, while his 33-year-old friend was stabbed in the torso during an afternoon attack at Davidson and West Tremont avenues in Morris Heights around 3:30 p.m., police sources said.
Both men were taken to St. Barnabas Hospital, where Shettlewood died from his injuries. His friend remained in stable condition, according to police sources.
It was unclear what led to the attack, but police source said it stemmed from a dispute.
The alleged stabber, Jeffrey Jorge, 37, of Brooklyn, was arrested the following morning after cops spotted him wielding a knife at Ocean Avenue and Parkside Avenue in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens.
He was charged with murder, attempted murder, manslaughter and two counts each of assault and criminal possession of a weapon, according to the NYPD.
