A South Ozone Park teen has been arrested and charged with stabbing D’Anthony McDonald to death, police said Tuesday night.

Wilson Rivera, 19, was charged with murder and criminal possession of a weapon, according to the NYPD.

Rivera lives about three blocks from where fellow South Ozone Park resident McDonald was murdered, police said.

At about 9 p.m. Friday, police were called to Linden Boulevard near 129th Street, where they found McDonald with a stab wound to the chest.

McDonald’s heartbroken father, Erick Anderson, said he had attempted to perform CPR on his son, to no avail.

McDonald had been taken to Jamaica Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
