A 13-year-old boy was charged Tuesday with allegedly attacking his wrestling teammate with a drumstick in the locker room at Woodland Middle School in East Meadow.

Police say the attack occurred last Tuesday and was reported by the victim's parents the following day. Police say the victim was assaulted from behind and injured with a foreign object, which caused an internal injury to the boy's lower torso.

The 13-year-old is being charged as a juvenile with second-degree assault and criminal possession of a weapon. Due to the ages of both involved, police are not releasing any names.
