UPDATE: Thursday at 11 a.m.
STANFORD, Ky. (LEX 18) — Documents from the Commonwealth of Kentucky provided additional information regarding the stabbing of a Stanford Dairy Queen employee that left her with "serious injuries" on Wednesday evening.
Following the arrest of 20-year-old Rachel Sanchez, the documents detailed that she spoke with officers and described what led up to the stabbing. Sanchez reportedly told officers that she went to work at Dairy Queen at around 2 p.m. on Wednesday. She then told officers that the stabbing victim came to work at around 4:30 p.m.
Sanchez then told officers that the victim was "giving her strange looks and she did not like it," the documents read. She then went to her home to reportedly grab a knife.
When Sanchez returned to Dairy Queen, she told officers that she "began assaulting her with the knife," according to the documents.
The arrest citation says that when police arrived, they found blood in the kitchen area before finding a woman who had several cuts to the neck and stomach area.
The manager was cut on her wrist after trying to get Sanchez off of the victim and reportedly stopped her from leaving the establishment.
According to the documents, Sanchez told officers that she was on medication for "being Schizophrenia, having anxiety and PTSD."
Sanchez was then arrested without any further incident, the documents read.
In court, Judge Oliver explained, "With the severity of the charges a bond is not likely before Monday, but that could change on Monday after the judge hears some evidence on that."
Now, Sanchez is set to appear back in court on June 3 at 2:00 p.m.
"And we'll see what happens between now and then, but that's all I’ll need for this morning,” said Judge Oliver.
