Montgomery Blair H.S. student stabs fellow student, parents later turn son in

A 17-year-old boy is recovering at the hospital after being stabbed by a fellow male student in a parking lot outside Montgomery Blair High School.

Around 10 a.m. Monday, the two juvenile male students became "involved in a conflict," Principal Renay Johnson wrote in a letter to the school community. That is when the suspect pulled a knife and stabbed the victim multiple times. Law enforcement sources tell 7News the victim had at least five stab wounds to his head and upper back.

Montgomery County Police saturated the high school campus with squad cars and K9 units. Patrol officers used yellow police tape to cordon off a portion of the school's back parking lot where the stabbing occurred. The lot is adjacent to Colesville Road and the school's outdoor track.

“This is just unheard of. I’m not going to lie. I’ve never seen this before," Blair student Habei Belai told a group of reporters.

Gio Caballeros, who left Blair about one month ago to take part in Montgomery County's GED program, noted that the students should not have been in the parking lot to begin with.

“It’s class. Lunch doesn’t start until 11 a.m. They should have been in class," Caballeros remarked.
