Advertiser Staff

An 11-year-old 'Aiea boy has been arrested in the stabbing of a 9-year-old girl.

Police said the boy used a one-and-a-half inch pocket knife to stab the girl in the arm after she moved to protect an 11-year-old girl he had threatened.

Neither girl was seriously injured in the attack, which occurred inside the boy's home Friday.

The boy was arrested on charges on counts of terroristic threatening and assault. He was released pending further investigation.
