MANDEVILLE, La. – A 13-year-old Mandeville Junior High student was arrested and charged with aggravated battery after stabbing a fellow student in the arm several times with a pen.
A verbal argument escalated over several days between the two students and ended with one of them stabbing his pen into the others right arm twice and left arm once, Mandeville Police spokesman Eric Gulino said.
The teenager who stabbed the other student was taken to Florida Parishes Correctional Facility. The teenager who was stabbed went home with his parents.
Because both are minors, their identities cannot be released.
