A Queens teen ran for his life after an argument — but couldn’t escape a bloody end on a Woodhaven sidewalk, authorities said.
Josue Argudo was in a dispute with two others around 3:45 p.m. Friday when he tried to flee, authorities said.
But the assailants caught up with the 17-year-old, with one punching him and the other stabbing him in the neck at the corner of Jamaica Avenue and 76th Street, cops said.
EMS rushed the victim to Jamaica Hospital in critical condition, but he was later pronounced dead. There have been no arrests, cops said.
Neighbor Patricia Ammirati was in her kitchen and heard teens arguing outside before the stabbing.
“The back door was open,” she said. “I look out, and I see the boy with the light gray [sweatshirt] sitting down. And then he slumped over. It was so fast.”
Her neighbors gave the teen CPR to no avail, she said.
Her surveillance camera caught what appeared to be the victim and another teen walking down the street.
The two walk next to each other before the suspect appears to jab the victim in the neck, video viewed by The Post shows.
“I thought he was punching him but the guy in black must have had the knife wrapped up around his hand,” she said.
“The kid sat down, and then he slumped over,” she said. “What a sin.”
An investigation is ongoing, said cops, who are hunting for the teens and released photos of both suspects.
She said the teen and another boy casually walked away after the assault.
“They just walked away like nothing happened,” she said. “Like nothing. They don’t care. They have no regards.”
She regrets that she wasn’t outside to try to stop the violence.
“If I were outside 10 minutes more, maybe I could have stopped it,” she said. “I’d say, ‘This ain’t happening on my corner!’ I wish I could have saved the boy’s life.”
