A 15-year-old boy was stabbed to death outside a massive party on Long Island late Monday night, authorities confirmed Tuesday.
Liam Delemo, a West Babylon resident, was attending a party in the town when a fight erupted just before 10:30 p.m., Suffolk County police said in a press release.
Between 90 and 100 teenagers were at the party on Carlton Road, about 30 miles east of Central Park, according to authorities. Delemo was stabbed during the brawl and transported to Good Samaritan Hospital in West Islip, where he was pronounced dead.
No suspects have been arrested or publicly identified. Cops did not elaborate on the reason or nature of the giant party. They asked anyone with information about the case to call 631-852-6392 and speak with investigators.
Delemo’s death is at least the third time a young person has been stabbed in Suffolk County in the past two weeks.
