Three North Las Vegas brothers, ages 14, 16 and 18, were injured after they were confronted by a large group of teenagers Thursday afternoon while walking home from Rancho High School.

A physical fight occurred, and one brother was stabbed multiple times, police said. Another suffered blunt force trauma that may have been caused by a bat, police said. The fight occurred at about 2:40 p.m. near Civic Center Drive and Webb Street. North Las Vegas police said they believe the group of teenagers was also Rancho High School students.
