Pa. man who attacked fed agent gets prison time

SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) — A northeastern Pennsylvania man who attacked a Secret Service agent with brass knuckles and a chunk of asphalt will spend at least four months in prison.

Kenneth Kile, 25, of Kingston was sentenced today to four to 21 months in prison for the June attack on Agent William Slavoski.

Police say Kile attacked Slavoski after the agent saw Kile driving erratically and stopped his truck on an expressway. Investigators say Kile threatened Slavoski then attacked him as the agent tried to get out of his vehicle.

Police say Slavoski suffered injuries to his face, head and arm.

Kile pleaded guilty to simple assault and other charges as part of a plea agreement.
