BRIEFLY Gun owner stops knife-wielding skateboarder LEBANON (AP) — Police in Lebanon, Oregon, say a man pulled a gun on a skateboarder who was threatening a driver with a knife. Authorities told KPTV the incident happened Thursday night, when the 30-year-old skateboarder —Michael Van Gelder — got into a confrontation with a driver. A witness with a concealed carry permit saw what was happening and drew his weapon. He ordered the skateboarder to drop the knife. Police say the skateboarder tried to run, but was stopped by the driver and the gun owner. They say the skateboarder struck the driver, who sustained a minor injury. Court records list Van Gelder as a resident of Stevenson, Washington. He was booked into the Linn County Jail on charges of assault, menacing, disorderly conduct and unlawful use of a weapon. He had not retained a lawyer or been appointed one as of early Friday afternoon. East Oregonian Page 7A Wisconsin girl reaches plea deal in Slender Man case By IVAN MORENO Associated Press WAUKESHA, Wis. — The second of two Wisconsin girls charged with repeatedly stabbing a classmate to impress horror character Slender Man will plead guilty in a deal that will send her to a state mental hospital and bring an end a case that shocked people in part because the attackers were only 12. The deal, announced in court Friday, means both girls will avoid prison time for the attack on Payton Leutner, who was also 12. Morgan Geyser, now 15, will be treated indefi- nitely at a mental hospital. Her co-defendant, Anissa Weier, faces at least three years in a mental hospital. “It’s been a tragic experi- ence for everyone,” Geyser’s attorney, Donna Kuchler, said after a brief court hearing Friday. “Our hearts go out Michael Sears/Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel In this Nov. 11, 2016 file photo, Morgan E. Geyser is escorted into a Wauke- sha County Court in Waukesha, Wis. to the victim and her family. And we’re very grateful that the district attorney’s office gave this case the considering it deserves.” Weier and Geyser lured Payton Leutner, who was also 12, into the woods at a park in Waukesha, a Milwaukee suburb. Geyser stabbed Leutner 19 times while Weier urged her on, according to investigators. Leutner survived after she crawled out of the woods to a path where a passing bicyclist found her. Both Weier and Geyser told detectives they felt they had to kill Leutner to become Slender Man’s “proxies,” or servants, and protect their families from him. Geyser had been scheduled to go on trial Oct. 16. The plea deal comes after a jury this month determined that Weier was mentally ill at the time of the attack on Leutner. Geyser was at Friday’s hearing but didn’t speak. Afterward, the judge allowed her to spend three hours with her family before returning her to a mental hospital where she has been receiving treat- ment. The Leutner family issued a statement saying they had no comment about Friday’s hearing but will issue a statement at a plea hearing Thursday when Geyser’s deal will be formalized. Geyser and Weier were charged with attempted first-degree intentional homicide, which carries a possible sentence of up to 65 years in prison. Weier pleaded guilty to a reduced charge last month, and a jury then determined the sentence. Unlike Weier, Geyser will plead guilty to the original charge from prosecutors. But Geyser won’t face a sentencing phase where attor- neys would argue that she was mentally ill when the crime occurred and shouldn’t face prison time. “It’s just fair. It saves everybody a trial. It saves the victim, her family,” Kuchler said. COURTS Sentences seeks $2,759.34.
