Stabbing

Sydney Payton King, 22, is charged with aggravated assault – bodily injury with a deadly weapon. If convicted, she could face up to 10 years in prison.

A 23-year-old Cheyenne man accused of stabbing his brother has been bound over to Laramie County District Court.

In his statement to the court, Johnson asked for 2-3 years in prison so he could serve his time and return to Tennessee.

The victim later alleged in a Facebook post that the attack was racially motivated. Laramie police continue to investigate and have not concluded whether racial bias was involved.

Schnitker took a knife from a sheath on the seat of the truck, got out and stabbed Gartman six times. A man who had been inside Gartman's home watching the surveillance feed ran outside to help, but was too late.

The emergency room doctor reportedly said the stab wound to the victim's right wrist cut into an artery and was life-threatening.

The department notes in the release that Wyoming does not enhance penalties for those convicted of crimes motivated by bias.

Officers found and cared for the victim until a Laramie Fire Department ambulance arrived.
