Cheyenne Transient Charged in Tuesday Stabbing of 15-Year-Old
UPDATE:
Cheyenne police have identified the victim in Tuesday's stabbing near the 200 block of E. 9th Street as a 15-year-old boy.
Public Information Officer Alex Farkas says the victim and his friend, a 14-year-old boy, were at Lincoln Park when 39-year-old transient Allen Fenstermacher struck up a conversation with them.
"The juveniles left the area on foot, but as they walked, Fenstermacher reportedly followed them towards the juvenile victim’s residence," Farkas said Wednesday afternoon in a news release.
"As they arrived at the residence, the juvenile victim requested help from his father," Farkas added. "The father asked Fenstermacher to leave, but he refused to do so."
Farkas says a physical altercation between the father and Fenstermacher began, and the boys joined.
"During the altercation, it is believed that Fenstermacher produced a knife and assaulted the juvenile victim," she said.
Farkas says the victim was taken to Cheyenne Regional Medical Center and treated for a minor injury.
Fenstermacher was arrested and charged with aggravated assault. He is scheduled to make his initial appearance in Laramie County Circuit Court tomorrow, Sept. 8, at 2 p.m.
