  • Boy, 15, dies after Vancouver park stabbing

A 15-year-old Vancouver boy has died after a fight between two groups of young people in a west-side park.

Vancouver police says the teen was stabbed during the fight on Saturday.

He underwent surgery for a chest wound but Sgt. Steve Addison says the teen died Sunday.

A 14-year-old was arrested shortly after the fight.

Addison says the boy has been charged with possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.

The Vancouver police homicide unit wants to speak to anyone who may have information about the killing.
