  • News

An Atlantic City 16-year-old was arrested in the fatal stabbing of another teen Wednesday night.

Police were called to an apartment in the 1300 block of Caspain Avenue at about 10:40 p.m. for the report of a juvenile boy stabbed, according to the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office.

They found a 16-year-old boy, identified only as S.B., in the apartment with what appeared to be at least one stab wound, according to the report.

The victim was taken to AtlantiCare Regional Medical Center's City Campus, where he died from his injuries.

Another 16-year-old was charged with murder and weapons offenses. He is identified only at T.C.

The teen is being held in a juvenile detention center.

It was not yet clear if the Prosecutor's Office would move to have him waived up to adult court.
