(KAIR)--Guilty.
That's the verdict handed down by a jury in connection with a Leavenworth stabbing that authorities say stemmed from cutting in line at a Leavenworth gas station.
According to Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, the jury found 39-year-old Andrew Housworth guilty of one count of aggravated battery October 24 as the outcome of his Leavenworth County District Court Trial.
A post-trial motions hearing is now scheduled for December 8.
Thompson says Housworth, on January 12, was at a Spruce Street gas station when he became upset after being confronted about cutting in line.
Leaving the store after the verbal confrontation, Housworth waited outside, yelling at the victim and threatening him once he exited.
Authorities say Housworth then charged the victim, stabbing him one time in the chest before running away from the scene of the crime.
