The 11-year-old victim was hospitalized with serious injuries.
PERTH AMBOY, N.J. - Students at a New Jersey high school walked out of class to demand a safer school environment after an 11-year-old boy was stabbed, allegedly by another student.
Smailyn Jimenez, 11, was walking home from middle school when another 11-year-old student allegedly attacked him with a knife, causing serious injuries. Parents say the district rarely notifies them about acts of violence and that their calls for metal detectors and backpack searches have fallen on deaf ears.“This school is out of control. There needs to be a change as soon as possible. This is going way overboard. Kids are getting jumped, fights every day, knives every day,” Deleon said.
