ST. CLOUD, Minn. (KFGO/WJON) – A St. Cloud man who pleaded guilty to stabbing a fast food manager after a fight broke out inside the restaurant has been sentenced.
Arieon Smith, 19, was given a stayed sentence of one year and nine months in prison after pleading guilty to 2nd-degree assault with a dangerous weapon in December. He must serve five-and-a-half months in the county jail after being credited for time served. Smith will also be on probation for five years.
Police were called to the McDonald’s at 2120 Division Street W. in September where a man had been stabbed once in the chest.
Witnesses at the scene said several people were involved in a fight when the manager was stabbed. Police used surveillance video to determine Smith was the suspect.
According to court records, Smith admitted to getting into a fight with McDonald’s staff and stabbing one person. Smith also said he couldn’t remember what he did with the knife after the assault.
