Bronx, NY
An 8-year-old Bronx boy today slashed a classmate across the neck with a double-edged razor — at a school that’s already canceled graduation once because of out-of-control behavior, cops and parents said.
Police sources said the pint-sized perp told cops he brings the blade to school with him every day because some of the kids don’t like him, ABC-TV reported.
The boy snapped on the playground during lunch after feuding with his 9-year-old victim at the violence-plagued school — PS 132 in the Morrisania section — on and off for the past few days, a law-enforcement source told The Post.
The victim had yelled, “B----!” at the boy just before he was cut, sources told ABC.
The stunned 9-year-old was sliced on the back of his neck — a “deep laceration’’ just inches from an artery — shortly before noon, sources said.
He was rushed to Bronx Lebanon Hospital fewer than three blocks away, where he was received stitches and was listed in serious but stable condition.
