A fight outside a Queens high school Monday morning left one student slashed and two security guards injured, the NYPD said.

The brawl happened at around 9:20 a.m., when a 16-year-old boy slashed a 17-year-old boy, a fellow student of Grover Cleveland High School, in the leg during a physical altercation.

The victim and two school security guards who intervened to stop the fight were taken to Elmhurst Hospital and treated for injuries.

The perp was apprehended and the weapon was taken into custody, an NYPD spokesperson said. At press time, she was unsure of whether the aggressor would be charged as a juvenile or adult.
