A fight over a bag of candy led to a stabbing in Bennington.
Police say 18-year-old Zachary Dessert stabbed a 17-year-old relative in the leg with a seven-inch-long knife after the two got into an argument over a Ziploc bag of candy containing bite-sized Three Muskateers and a couple of Snickers bars.
Dessert then allegedly pulled the phone cord out of the wall to try and prevent the teen from calling police.
He's now charged with aggravated assault and interference with emergency services.
The victim suffered minor injuries. His name has not been released.
