A fight between two groups of men ended with three of the men stabbed at a Queens subway station platform Monday afternoon, police said.
The fight happened at the Jamaica Center-Parsons Archer station in Jamaica at about 4 p.m., the FDNY said.
At least two men were stabbed in the stomach and one in the leg, police said.
The suspects fled into the subway system and got away, police said.
The NYPD initiated what is called a Level 1 mobilization -- the borough task force responds to help in the search of the suspects.
Northbound J trains are terminating at Sutphin Blvd-Archer Avenue and 121 Street and eastbound E trains are suspended from Jamaica Van Wyck, the MTA said.
