BANGOR, Maine — A Bangor teen, 14, was arrested Wednesday and charged with Class A felony elevated aggravated assault in connection with the stabbing of another 14-year-old.
Bangor police were called on Tuesday night to Langley Street between Mitchell Street and Bolling Drive for a report that a person had been assaulted with a knife, Bangor Police Department spokesman Sgt. Jason McAmbley said in a release.
Police found a 14-year-old male, also from Bangor, bleeding from his abdomen when they arrived at the scene. He was taken by ambulance to a local hospital for treatment of injuries not considered to be life-threatening.
After interviewing several witnesses police identified a suspect and found a BB pistol allegedly involved in the incident while searching the area, McAmbley said.
On Wednesday, police executed a search warrant at a Bangor home and arrested the suspect. He was taken to Long Creek Youth Development Center in South Portland, where he is being held.
