From the Ingles Studio this is your news minute on the Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast presented by Powers Electrical Solutions. Today is Wednesday, September 6th and I'm Keith Ippolito.
In the Towne Lake area, an employee at a bar called "The Place," Eric Armstrong, 31, of Woodstock, has been arrested and charged with stabbing a 49-year-old customer. The incident occurred around 12:30 a.m., following reports of a "person stabbed" at the bar. It was revealed that before the stabbing, the victim had been acting disorderly and was escorted outside by several individuals, leading to a fight in which he was stabbed in the chest.
Cherokee Sheriff’s Office investigators identified the parties involved and made three arrests. Armstrong, an employee of the bar, was held responsible for the stabbing and faces charges of aggravated assault and tampering with evidence. He remains in custody without bond.
Two other bar patrons, Bradley Salisbury, 25, and Bryan Cahill, 39, both from the area, were also arrested in connection with the altercation. Salisbury was charged with battery, and Cahill was charged with simple battery. Both were released on $1,000 bonds the following morning.
The victim, whose identity remains undisclosed, was transported to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital and remains in serious condition.
