A victim sustained injuries to his head, neck, and face after being cut with a sharp, bladed weapon in midtown Kingston, police say.
The alleged perpetrator is Deandre D. Green, a 27-year-old resident of Kingston. He was arrested by the City of Kingston Police Department on August 22 and faces multiple felony charges, including two counts of first-degree assault with intent to disfigure and to cause serious physical injury, second-degree assault with intent and injury caused by a weapon, and third-degree criminal possession of a weapon with a prior conviction.
Around 8:30 p.m. on Aug. 13, Green allegedly attacked a 19-year-old male with a bladed weapon. The unidentified victim was taken to a local hospital and received treatment for his wounds. The assault reportedly happened on Broadway between Elmendorf Street and East St. James Street.
Following an investigation conducted by the Kingston Police Department, with assistance from the Town of Ulster Police, Green was indicted by an Ulster County Grand Jury. A County Court warrant was subsequently issued. After his arrest, Green was processed, arraigned in Ulster County Court, and remanded to Ulster County Jail without bail.
Authorities said the case remains an active and ongoing criminal investigation. Anyone with information related to the incident is asked to contact Detective Michael Defrance at the Kingston Police Department by calling (845) 331-8404 or emailing mdefrance@kingston-ny.gov.
