BRONX - A teen was beaten, stabbed and shot at by a group of six men who pounced in him on a Bronx street.




At around 5 pm on February 13, a 15-year-old boy was standing on the corner of Morris Avenue and East 174th Street in the East Tremont section of the Bronx. A group of six men approached the teen and began punching him without warning.


Then one of the attackers pulled out a knife and repeatedly stabbed the teen in the torso.





Then another member of the group pulled out a gun and fired several rounds in the direction of the victim. Miraculously no one was hit by a bullet.


The attackers fled on foot.
