Two teens charged in stabbing

Two other teenagers have also been arrested and charged for the crime of attempted murder in connection with an incident which happened last month. They have been identified as sixteen year old Eric Pitts and seventeen year old Cleveland May. The two are accused of wounding eighteen year old student Luis Contreras and another youth, Emmanuel Barrow, on March twenty ninth. Contreras told police that he was walking on Amara Avenue shortly after midnight on the morning in question when the two men held him up. One stabbed him on his right hip and Barrow on the right side of his back. They were both treated and released from the Karl Heusner Memorial hospital. May and Pitts have each been charged with attempted murder, grievous harm, wounding and two counts of harm, throwing missiles and disorderly conduct.
