MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A Monongalia County jury has sentenced a man charged in an April 2025 stabbing on Forest Avenue to at least three years in prison.
Tyler Bollhorst, 20, of Aldie, Virginia, was in a group of people involved in an argument with another subject in front of a residence on Forest Avenue. Police said video surveillance showed Bollhorst with a knife in his right hand making a swinging motion at the victim.
The victim was later reported to J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital, where the investigation began.
Following a September trial, Bollhorst was sentenced on Thursday to three to fifteen years in prison.
Monongalia County Prosecuting Attorney Gabrielle “Gabe” Mucciola was the lead prosecutor, and Morgantown City Police Department Detective Ryan Stallings conducted the investigation.
