One Teen Arraigned After Allegedly Stabbing Another With Golf Club in Wakefield, Massachusetts

One Massachusetts teen was arraigned Wednesday after allegedly stabbing another with a broken golf club.

Police arrested 18-year-old Curtis Day of Beverly Tuesday night. He is accused of impaling the neck of the victim, also an 18-year-old Beverly male, with a golf club at the Breakheart Reservation in Wakefield.

The incident took place around 5 p.m. The suspect, the victim and another man from Beverly all arrived in the same car, but soon got into an altercation. Police say Day took off.

"[He stole a car, fled the area and there was a car crash in Wakefield Center," Massachusetts State Police Sgt. Mark Lynch said Tuesday.

Day sustained minor injuries in the crash. The victim, meanwhile, was airlifted with life-threatening injuries to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston.

Wednesday, Day appeared in court to face a litany of charges, including armed assault with intent to murder, assault and battery with a weapon causing serious injury, larceny of a vehicle, receiving a stolen vehicle, driving under the influence of drugs, reckless driving, unlicensed driving and disorderly conduct.

Day was ordered to be held without bail pending a dangerousness hearing Friday. It was not immediately clear if he had an attorney.
