It’s unclear what sparked the argument.

The two teenagers were both stabbed in the torso, the NYPD said.

The 17-year-old was taken to Bellevue Hospital where he was pronounced dead. He was not immediately identified.

The older brother was also taken to Bellevue and is in stable condition, police said.

Part of the block was taped off by investigators, according to ABC 7 footage.

The investigation is ongoing and no arrests were immediately made on Thursday.
