One juvenile grabbed another and friends of the grabber began to strike the person being held. A 13-year-old girl, who was friends with the person being struck began to remove people from her friend when she saw Washburn come up behind her and then felt pain in her back.
The girl told LPD she and her friends began to flee the scene when her back felt wet. “She felt her back and when she put her hand in front of her, she saw it was covered in blood.” She then ran to a South New York Street home for help.
The victim told patrol that Washburn had thrown a pair of knives prior to patrol’s arrival. Patrol located one in a bush on South New York Street. “The suspect stated that was not the knife he threw at the juvenile victim,” according to the report.
