Officers were called around 4 p.m. to the 600 block of 11th Avenue, where they found a 17-year-old boy. Prospect Park police chief Dave Madonna said.
The teen was taken to an area hospital where he underwent extensive surgery, police said. His status is unknown.
"This is a quiet town and this event is an anomaly," Madonna said on Facebook.
"In fact, this is the first incident of its kind in the almost 3 years I’ve been here. I ask everyone for their patience as we dive further into this investigation."
Anyone with information is urged to message Chief Madonna or call 610-534-2222.
