(KAIR)--A Leavenworth County woman has been convicted of stabbing a man 11 times early this year.

According to a release from Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, 50-year-old Becky Lynn Kelly “was convicted as charged in a two-day trial [for] aggravated battery from an incident in the City of Leavenworth.”

According to the release, Kelly, of Lansing, was arrested after she was identified as the one involved in the stabbing at a Leavenworth apartment complex.
Police were called there twice on January 7, first for a noise complaint and again after a neighbor heard a man yell that he had been stabbed.

When they returned, police found two neighbors tending to the victim, and learned that Kelly had been seen leaving the apartment, with her victim following “after her before collapsing at the base of the steps.”

He suffered serious injuries, including two collapsed lungs and a punctured colon, but survived.
