A Pottsville man charged with assaulting two men in the 100 block of North Third Street in the city on Sept. 18 is among those scheduled to plead not guilty today during arraignment in Schuylkill County Court.
Matthew R. Stephany, 23, of 612 W. Norwegian St., was arrested by Pottsville police Patrolman Joseph Welsh and charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, recklessly endangering another person, simple assault and harassment.
Welsh charged Stephany with stabbing Jamie Ebert in the chest and his son, Timothy Ebert, in the leg, forcing both to be taken to a hospital. Witnesses said Timothy Ebert and Stephany had planned to meet in the area for a mutually agreed on fight, but Stephany pulled a knife from his waistband, saying that he was going to protect himself and a physical confrontation ensued, Welsh said. During the confrontation, both Eberts suffered cutting injuries, the officer said.
