The 13-year-old Omaha boy arrested for felony assault in the stabbing of a 19-year-old during an argument over a cell phone Sunday will not be charged as an adult.
Cameron Craddock was booked at the Douglas County Department of Corrections for felony assault and use of a weapon to commit a felony.
Nineteen-year-old Jamal Holmes was stabbed twice in the lower abadomen and once in the arm inside a home at 30th and Whitmore around 3:40 p.m. He was taken to the Nebraska Medical Center. His current condition is not being released.
Douglas County Attorney Don Kleine said Monday the decision was made due to Craddock's lack of a serious juvenile court record. Channel 6 News found just five entries that included minor in possession, trespassing and making threats.
Kleine said the circumstances surrounding the cutting also worked in Craddock's favor. "All those things come into play as far as making a determination of where to place that juvenile within the system."
