Police are on the hunt for multiple suspects responsible for stabbing a 15-year-old boy as they attempted to rob him in Longwood.

The incident happened inside the 6 train as it was arriving at the Whitlock Avenue station on Tuesday at around 10:06 p.m.

They say the group of people attempted to rob two teenagers, one 15-years-old and an 18-year-old.

The 18-year-old walked away with no injuries, but the other teen was found with a stab wound in the stomach.

He was taken to Jacobi Hospital in stable condition.

Investigators said one of the men they are searching for was last seen wearing a ski mask and he ran out of the station after the stabbing.
