A man is in McKean County jail for cutting a woman’s hand with a cleaver, a day after he allegedly hit her in the mouth three times.
Papers filed in District Judge Dominic Cercone’s office say on Saturday 39-year-old Larry Kline of Bradford punched the victim in the mouth, causing swelling and contusions. Then on Sunday, he slashed her hand with a cleaver, causing a laceration that needed sutures and impairment of at least one finger.
Kline’s bail is set at $20,000 and he is scheduled for a preliminary hearing on Thursday.
