ANNADALE — A teenager was arrested Tuesday after he repeatedly stabbed friend in the torso during a large Annadale party Monday night, police said.

Daniel Milton, 17, was arrested Tuesday and charged with assault and criminal possession of a weapon at his arraignment for stabbing an 18-year-old male teenager near Arden Avenue and Koch Boulevard, according to the NYPD and Staten Island District Attorney's office.

The teen was partying at a home near the intersection with a large group of people when he got into a fight with Milton over a girl, according to police and another law enforcement source.

Milton then took out a box cutter and stabbed the teen nine times in the torso at about 11 p.m., authorities said.

The victim was taken to Staten Island University Hospital North where he's listed in stable condition, police said. He needed surgery because of the amount of blood lost during the attack, according to Milton's complaint. 

Milton's bail was set at $200,00, according to the DA.

Contact information for his lawyer was not immediately available.
