A Wayne High School freshman is accused of stabbing a 16-year-old girl, also a Wayne High School student, during an argument. She is facing a felonious assault charge in Montgomery County Juvenile Court, according to a police report.
“My friend just got stabbed with a knife,” a teen girl reported to Huber Heights Communication Center. “We need you’ll to hurry up.”
The stabbing victim was found conscious in the parking lot suffering from multiple stab wounds. According to the 911 call, the teen was stabbed in her chest, side and arm. She was taken to Dayton Children’s Hospital in critical condition, police said. The hospital on Friday said the teen was listed in fair condition.
The teen suspect described as wearing a brown coat and black hat ran north through the park and was quickly taken into custody by responding officers in the 5900 block of Longford Road after she left the park and headed back toward the high school.
Footage from a Huber Heights officer’s body-worn camera shows that police recovered a knife and pepper spray from the 15-year-old girl’s pockets. An officer on the video said the knife was bloody and that there was blood on the girl’s hands, which were photographed by an evidence technician.
The knife in the video appeared to be a filet knife with a 4- to 5-inch blade that also had a ventilated sheath.

The stabbing appears to be an isolated incident between the two teens, police said, and remains under investigation.
