Delinquency petition filed against student accused of robbing, stabbing another Adams HS student

ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. -- A delinquency petition has been filed against a 15-year-old student who is accused of robbing and stabbing another student at Adams High School on January 11.

On Tuesday, the St. Joseph Probate Court approved the prosecutor’s request to file a delinquency petition in juvenile court against the 15-year-old.

The teen, who ABC57 has chosen not to identify, is facing a delinquency petition for armed robbery, battery resulting in serious bodily injury, battery by means of a deadly weapon and possession of a knife on school property resulting in bodily injury.

All counts would be felonies if filed in adult court.

The petition says the teen robbed the victim of cash and/or THC cartridges and stabbed the victim in the ribs.

The teen’s initial hearing is scheduled for January 24.
