Here we go again! Boy, 17, is stabbed after violent migrant brawl erupts in Times Square... weeks after another group was filmed attacking NYPD officers

A 17-year-old migrant was stabbed during a fight in Times Square, just weeks after a group of asylum seekers was filmed attacking police officers on the same block.

The male victim, believed to be from Nicaragua, was chased by a group of more than a dozen people Thursday night before they caught him and stabbed him in the back, according to The New York Post.

The stabbing occurred in front of 251 W. 42nd Street around 5:30 pm and the victim was rushed to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition. Police recovered a large blood-stained knife at the scene.

Hours later another fight broke out, believed to be unrelated, and a second man was taken to hospital. The attacks occurred on the same blocks where a group of migrants was filmed attacking police officers on January 27.

Times Square worker Bell Mohamed witnessed the latest attack and told The Post, “I saw someone running…and blood was coming out of their back, everywhere.”

The attack occurred around 8:30 p.m. when officers attempted to disperse a disorderly group in front of 220 West 42 Street.

Police sources confirmed to the New York Post the immigration status of the men involved in the January 27 attack.

A fight broke out between a suspect in a yellow sweatshirt and police officers.

According to the NYPD, the immigrants began attacking the officers, kicking them in the head and body, while the two officers attempted to restrain one of the other men, ripping off his sweatshirt.

The migrants then fled and fled east on 42nd Street toward 7th Avenue.

Around 10:44 p.m. that night, four of them: Gómez, Arocha, Wilson and Reverón, were arrested.

All were charged with assault on a police officer, gang assault, obstruction of government administration and disorderly conduct, but were released without monetary bail.
