A 14-year-old boy was caught with a loaded gun during a heated collision in a Queens Playground Wednesday afternoon and a good Samaritan who came in to stop the Melee, was cut by another attacker, agents and sources said.
The teenager flashed a gun when he was around 3.40 pm with another young person in Hollis Playground in 204th Street and Hollis Avenue in Queens Village in Queens Village Vocht, Cops said.
A good Samaritan saw the boys fight and tried to stop them – even informing school safety officers is 192, a public high school in the block, the police said.
At one point, a third suspect who was not involved in the first fight cut the Samaritan on the back, Cops said.
That person ran away, but the gun-waving teenager was taken in custody in the school by the security officers, the police said.
Charges were not immediately filed.
The incident followed an eruption of violence in which teenagers were involved both inside and outside secondary schools at the end of last month.
A 16-year-old boy was stabbed and injured against John F. Kennedy High School on Terrace View Avenue in the Marble Hill section of the Bronx on 26 February, the police said.
The day before, a 17-year-old boy was caught with a loaded gun that was stored in his backpack after he had started a fight with another student within the Community School for Social Justice on East 140th Street in Mott Haven, the police and sources said.
