Peter Jantzi accompanies Diane Anderson to her estranged husband Rex Anderson's house and lets the air out of the tires of Rex's van. Rex chases Peter down a bicycle path and jumps on him, getting stabbed in the abdomen by Peter's knife. Peter is convicted of assault in the 2nd degree. The Court of Appeals affirms the conviction but modifies it to assault in the 3rd degree and remands for resentencing, finding that while Peter knew he had a weapon and an injury could occur, he did not intend to stab Rex.
