MANHATTAN — Police have arrested five suspects in a triple stabbing near Times Square early Thursday morning.

Police said the suspects, a group of men between the ages of 18 and 20 years old, stabbed a group of victims during a dispute at Eighth Avenue and 45th Street around 1:30 a.m Thursday.

The three victims — a 19-year-old woman and two 20-year-old men — were taken to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition, police said.

Charges are pending against the suspects, who are being questioned at the Midtown North precinct, police said.

Police recovered the knife used in the attack, they said.
