GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) — A man accused of stabbing a teen on Green Bay’s east side believed the teen stole money and a vehicle title from him, prosecutors say.
Angel Guerrero, 21, appeared in Brown County court Thursday. He faces five counts, including second-degree recklessly endangering safety, battery and disorderly conduct, all with the use of a dangerous weapon.
The stabbing took place Jan. 10 at a business in the 1100 block of Radisson Street.
According to the criminal complaint, the victim told police he knew Guerrero and was at his home the night before the stabbing. At one point, Guerrero accused the victim of stealing from him.
The next night, the victim said he went to the business for a meeting with another person. When he saw Guerrero’s vehicle arrive, the victim realized he had been set up. The victim told police Guerrero got out of the vehicle, stabbed him in the stomach with a six-inch knife, then went back to his vehicle and drove away.
On Wednesday, police found Guerrero through an anonymous tip and arrested him. He told police he did “what (he did)” because of the theft he suspected.
In court Thursday, a $25,000 cash bond was set. Guerrero is due back in court Jan. 27.
