Teen Stabbed at Party at Mansion in Newport, Rhode Island

The Newport Daily News reports that the unauthorized party Friday night at Kingscote drew as many as 50 teenagers

Police say a 17-year-old boy was stabbed multiple times and three people were charged in connection with an out-of-control party at a Newport, Rhode Island, mansion. 

The Newport Daily News reports that the unauthorized party Friday night at Kingscote drew as many as 50 teenagers. 

A Portsmouth teen was stabbed early Saturday in the back, between his ribs and above his left hip when he tried to break up a fight. He was in stable condition Sunday. 

Two boys charged in connection with the stabbing face arraignment Monday. 

Police say 18-year-old Josiah Travers hosted the party. He's charged with providing alcohol for minors. He told police he knew the estate's caretakers were out of town so invited some friends over. It's not clear if he has a lawyer. 

Kingscote was built in in 1839.
