A 15-year-old was stabbed inside a Brooklyn high school on Tuesday morning, a police spokesperson said.

At approximately 9:20 a.m. police officers responded to a 911 call at Edward R. Murrow High School in Midwood. They found the student with a stab wound in his abdomen.

He was transported to nearby Maimonides Medical Center in stable condition, an NYPD spokesperson said.

No arrests have been made, according to police. Multiple outlets reported the person who stabbed him was another teen who fled the scene.

The school building was placed on lockdown, according to Department of Education spokesperson Jenna Lyle.

โ€œThe safety and well-being of our students is our absolute top priority,โ€ Lyle told Gothamist.

In 2017, a 15-year-old was stabbed to death during his third-period history class at a Bronx school. Last month, a second-grader in Queens brought a knife to school, allegedly to attack another student. After a persistent campaign from concerned parents, the schoolโ€™s principal announced her resignation last week.
