NEW YORK - A 16-year-old boy is under arrest after police say he stabbed three other teens outside a Manhattan school Wednesday.

Juan Gomez is charged with attempted murder, assault, and criminal weapons possession.

It all started with a fight between two other students near P.S. 35 in Hell's Kitchen.

The fight broke out on 52nd Street near 8th Avenue shortly before 2 p.m.

Police say Gomez and several other students joined in.

Three people were stabbed, but all are expected to recover.

A knife was recovered at the scene.

Police say the two students initially involved in the fight had just returned to the school after being suspended on Thursday.
