Alleged stabber in White Plains teen fight arrested

A 17-year-old from New Rochelle has been charged in the stabbing of another teenager in White Plains following a house party this month.

The defendant, an Iona Prep wrestler, is charged with first-degree assault in the April 5 incident, which occurred late that night at the Mobil station at Mamaroneck and Rosedale avenues.

Police are not identifying the defendant because of his age but he is listed in court records. He pleaded not guilty and was released on bail and is scheduled to appear next week in the youth part of Westchester criminal court.

Police said the stabbing occurred during an altercation involving several teenagers. The victim, who suffered a chest wound, was taken to White Plains Hospital Center before police arrived.

A lawyer for the defendant could not immediately be reached.
