CHARGES HAVE NOT BEEN FILED AGAINST A 13 YEAR-OLD BOY ACCUSED OF STABBING A FELLOW MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENT IN SALINAS YESTERDAY. THAT’S BECAUSE SALINAS POLICE OFFICERS NOW BELIEVE THE BOY COMMITTED THE STABBING IN SELF-DEFENSE. THE TEEN WAS TAKEN IN FOR QUESTIONING AFTER THE STABBING THAT OCCURRED JUST OUTSIDE EL SAUSAL MIDDLE SCHOOL, BUT LATER RELEASED TO HIS PARENTS. THE 14 YEAR-OLD VICTIM IS IN STABLE CONDITION AT A BAY AREA HOSPITAL.
