A 14-year-old girl was knifed in the leg inside a Bronx high school Thursday morning, according to cops — the latest in a series of violent incidents involving Big Apple teens this week. The girl was slashed across her left leg after fighting with her assailant inside the East Bronx Academy for the Future around 11:36 a.m.

in Crotona, police said. The wounded teen was taken to NYC Health + Hospitals/Lincoln in stable condition. Her alleged assailant was taken into custody, police said.



The slashing came a day after a series of unrelated violent incidents targeted teens in Brooklyn and the Bronx. In the first altercation, a 14-year-old boy was walking in East New York Wednesday morning when three teens stormed over and demanded he take off his facemask, sources said. One of the brutes allegedly slashed him across the mouth and hand as the others held him down around 8:50 a.

m. near Van Siclen Avenue and Wortman Avenue in East New York, sources said. The victim recognized one of his attackers from school and police arrested two of the perps at P.

S. 166, according to sources. The third assailant has yet to be caught.

An hour later in the Bronx, a 15-year-old boy was slashed in the face by a stranger in the mezzanine of the 182nd-183rd Street B/D station in Fordham Heights, police said. Moments before the attack, the brute seethed, “Where are you from?” according to sources. That sparked a fight with the teen, sources told The Post.

His attacker — who is thought to be a teen — fled and has yet to be caught. Several hours later, a 16-year-old boy was robbed of his jacket at knifepoint by a pair of scooter-riding perps while he waited for a bus in Sheepshead Bay at 3:35 p.m.

, sources said. One of them allegedly threatened, “You better give me your jacket!” while they both whipped out blades on Avenue U and Nostrand Avenue as they cornered him. The duo then snatched his $800 jacket and rode off southbound on Nostrand Avenue, according to sources.

Neither of his assailants were caught as of Thursday afternoon..
