A 15-year-old boy was arrested Tuesday and slapped with an attempted murder charge for allegedly stabbing an older teen in a Brooklyn park earlier this month.

Police said the boy, whose name was not released due to his age, repeatedly stabbed an 18-year-old male after the pair got into a fight inside McLaughlin Park in Vinegar Hill shortly before 5 p.m. on May 3.

The older teen suffered multiple stab wounds to the torso and was rushed to New York- Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital in stable condition.
