A Sunday afternoon altercation between two teenagers on Franklin Ave. last week culminated in a 14-year-old boy stabbing a 16-year-old, police reported. The victim apparently suffered only a minor hand laceration.
The incident occurred at about 4 p.m. on Aug. 7 and reportedly was witnessed by several juveniles, who were interviewed by detectives.
