A 14-year-old Fayetteville male was charged over the weekend after pulling a knife on his mother, while threatening that he would cut her.

The male was charged with aggravated assault and making terroristic threats, according to Fayetteville Police spokesman Glenn Askew.

The Dec. 6 incident occurred at their Cobblestone Apartments residence when the two became involved in an argument, Askew said.

At one point the boy produced a knife and told his mother he would cut her, Askew said. The woman subsequently called police, Askew said.

Officers arrived and assessed the complaint, then took the 14-year-old into custody, Askew said.
