This is what medically called as gastric perforation and requires emergency surgical management within 4 to 12 hours of injury. If left unattended the person will develope distension of abdomen with vomitting within 4 to 6 hrs, fever within 12 hrs, all because of infection spreading to rest of abdomen ( medically called Peritonitis). If no surgery is undertaken the person will die due to sepsis within 24 to 48 hrs.
