The NYPD later described how the 14-year-old was assaulted by five ‘unknown males’ who proceeded to punch the teen several times in the head and body.
Incredibly despite the violence on display the boy was not cut during the vicious assault. He was however left with bruises together with cuts to his ears and arms.
The suspect who was armed with the shank knife was seen to be wearing a backpack with shark teeth printed on the back.
No arrests have yet been made and ‘the investigation is ongoing,’ the NYPD said.

Last month, Gov. Hochul defeated Republican congressman Lee Zeldin, an ally of Donald Trump, despite his campaign focus on the fear of violent crime.
Hochul had been expected to win in a state where there are more than twice as many registered Democrats as Republicans.
But Zeldin made the race competitive, closing in on Hochul in the final weeks and appearing to spur her to speak more about public safety.
In the midterms this year, voters have voiced frustrations like stubborn inflation and a shaky economy, but in New York, concerns about crime took precedence.
