INGAPORE - Two secondary school students have been arrested for stabbing a youth with a knife yesterday evening at Block 142 Potong Pasir Avenue 1.
According to a report in Lianhe Wanbao, the two 16-year-old students and a 17-year-old youth were involved in a dispute.
One of the students shouted that he was going to retrieve a knife while his accomplice continued to fight with the youth.
The teenager later reappeared with a knife, gave chase to the youth, and stabbed him in the chest.
A reporter from Lianhe Wanbao saw a sharp knife lying near the rubbish chute, a pair of slippers in the grass, and blood-stained tissues at the scene which was barricaded by police tape.
A maid who witnessed the incident later relayed what she saw to her employer Madam Tan.
