Officials say two migrant teens were victims in a New York City stabbing, one fatally, after the teens were asked if they spoke English and they responded that they didn't.

Officials say a trio of men approached the teens around 7:40 p.m. Thursday night, when one of the men asked if the teens spoke English. When the teens said they did not, they were attacked, according to police.

Police say they were responding to a 911 call for an assault in Lower Manhattan when they found a 17-year-old male with a stab wound to the chest and an 18-year-old male with a stab wound to the left arm.

Emergency medical services responded and transported both teens to the NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue location, according to officials.

1. Wonder how NYPD will quickly "manhunt" these murderers vs the CEO one?

[BComplex]

9. That was my VERY first thought when I read this.

Nope. Not going to manhunt. Quickly or otherwise.

13. And how many threads will be started on the subject?.......

[ShazzieB]

22. Right?

2. The Citizens Vigilante ICE Agency,...

4. Brownshirts

The nazis are starting to get emboldened. Meanwhile people are unaware of the death and rape of this nation is going to go through. It's not business as usual.

6. Is there a nationwide manhunt and a $10,000 bounty for information on the assailant like a previously

killed person this week?

[yardwork]

18. Is the NYPD tracking the assailants on video cameras?

If not, why not?

10. Why identify them as migrant teens?

There doesn't appear to be any information in the story that supports that these teens are migrants?

They were in New York City they could have been tourists, just because someone doesn't speak English doesn't mean they are migrants? Seems like a biased description of the teens in my opinion unless the writer had more information than what was written in the story

[GreenWave]

14. Years ago they were "deportees".

[ShazzieB]

24. I think the reporter was just reporting what the "authorities" told them.

The article says "Officials say two migrant teens were victims in a New York City stabbing..."

That's standard journalistic procedure. Personally, I don't think identifying them as migrants was out of line. If they were tourists or locals, I'm sure they would have been identified that way.

On propaganda.

What that song?
‘You’ve got to be carefully taught’

12. In Lower Manhattan? The tremendous variety of different languages regularly

heard in that area (since forever) makes this particularly odd.

Of all places to be triggered by someone not speaking English... it's like going to Chuck-E-Cheese and getting irritated because there are so many children there.

15. ...

17. Do these victims matter as much as the UHC CEO?

Will we be chided for not grieving enough?

19. Where is the manhunt? Oh he's not a rich white prick.

21. MAGA heroes trying to save Great America the expense of deporting the teens?

Will Donnie award or sell them Jan6 medals (with a pic of himself engraved in lead). ?

25. Did the attackers speak Navajo, Cherokee, Choctaw, or some other indigenous language?
