-A Marshfield teen is facing felony charges as he's accused of throwing a knife and two young boys over an argument about a video game.According to court records, 17-year-old Cyrus Kohel was playing video games with a 10 and 12-year-old boy when the 12-year-old started calling him names. Kohel got angry and began to hit the 12-year-old in the face and stomach repeatedly. They went back to playing games after the incident, but the young boys wouldn't follow Kohel's directions, so he went to the kitchen, got a knife and lunged at the boys. He then threw it at them, barely missing them.
The boys fled into a bedroom, locked the door and called police. Kohel was arrested and has been charged with child abuse and two counts of 1st degree recklessly endangering safety. During his court appearance on Monday, a $2,500 signature bond was set and he'll be back in court at the end of the month.
