- BY GRAHAM RAYMAN

A Rikers Island detainee was charged Tuesday with attempted murder for stabbing an alleged member of his own gang in the chest and back during a jail fight, officials said.

Shane DeLisle, also known as “Bankroll,” allegedly used a 7-inch plexiglass knife to repeatedly stab Charles Satterwhit­e, 32, at about 8:30 p.m. on Dec. 20 in the George R. Vierno Center, prosecutor­s said.

Satterwhit­e needed open-heart surgery to survive the attack, prosecutor­s said in a statement.

Both DeLisle, 25, and Satterwhit­e are alleged members of the Gorilla Stone Bloods gang, prosecutor­s said. DeLisle was arrested Jan. 30 for the attack, records show.

“This vicious attack was caught on video, which showed the defendant allegedly stabbing the victim multiple times with a piece of plexiglass fashioned into a knife, causing life-threatenin­g injuries,” Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark said in a statement.

Correction officers used pepper spray to stop the assault, prosecutor­s said.

Prosecutor­s did not disclose a motive for the near-deadly attack.

Two plexiglass blades were found in DeLisle’s cell, prosecutor­s said.

DeLisle was arraigned in Bronx Supreme Court on charges including attempted murder, assault, promoting prison contraband and illegal weapons possession, prosecutor­s said.

He is due back in court May 14, prosecutor­s said. He has been in jail since March 7, 2023, when he was arrested for attempted murder and conspiracy in Queens, records show.

His lawyer Matthew Patrick Walsh declined to comment.

Satterwhit­e has been at Rikers (pictured) since April 18, 2023, when he was arrested on gun possession charges in the Bronx and Brooklyn, records show.
