A BRONX TEEN was stabbed and left to die early Tuesday in a fight on the streets where he was raised, police said.

Damion Gilbert, 18, died at Montefiore Medical Center after the 12:20 a.m. stabbing in Norwood, cops said.

A security video captured the dying teen, already stabbed in the chest, collapsing on a sidewalk outside 3572 DeKalb Ave. He then scrambled down the block on his hands and knees before stopping to lie down on his back.

A second video showing first responders nearly dropping Gilbert as they carried him away on a stretcher has sparked an investigat­ion into how the response was handled, sources said.

The motive for the killing was unclear, although police said it was the result of an argument.
