(Atlantic, Iowa) – The trial for an Atlantic man charged in connection with a stabbing incident during the late night hours on April 3rd, is set to take place June 28th at 9:30-a.m.. According to online court records, arraignment for 19-year-old Michael Gehling will be held May 2nd and a Pre-Trial Conference on June 6th. Both begin at 9-a.m. His preliminary hearing is set to take place today (April 14), at 2-p.m.

Authorities last week said Gehling faces a Class-B Felony charge of Attempted Murder, and a Class-C Felony charge of Willful Injury-Causing Serious Injury. He’s pleaded not guilty. Gehling was arrested without incident, following an investigation that began with a 9-1-1 call at around 12:03-a.m., on April 4th. The call came in from a local resident requesting medical attention for a man who had a stab wound. Officers learned the incident happened in the area of 6th and Pine Streets.

The victim (whose name was not released) was transported to the Cass County Memorial Hospital (Cass Health), in Atlantic, and was later transported to the UNMC in Omaha, for treatment of serious injuries.
