State Boy 13 Charged With Throwing Rock
A 13 year old Merriam boy was arrested at his school and charged in Johnson County juvenile court with aggravated battery after a rock shattered a windshield and nearly killed a woman last July on Interstate 35. His mother was also arrested for aggravated intimidation of a witness. Det. Daniels described the victim as needing dozens of surgical screws in her head. A 16 year old cousin who witnessed the act led police to the boy through a tips hotline. The case closes a yearlong inquiry sparked by tips and a brag reportedly heard by a caller. The incident occurred on Interstate 35 near Merriam Kansas.
