Kelsey M. Winn, 18, of Forest Ridge Court, Mineral Ridge, was scheduled for arraignment today in Niles Municipal Court on a felonious assault charge, accused of cutting a boy, 13, with a kitchen knife Monday night.

Weathersfield Township police said they were advised the boy was walking in the Forest Ridge Apartments at 7:30 p.m. with three other boys when a female yelled at him, “Who wants to get cut?” while holding a large knife.

The boy, also of Mineral Ridge, said he walked up and put his hand out, “thinking she was joking,” and she cut him across his wrist, causing him to bleed, though the cut was not deep enough for stitches, police said.
