A Butler man accused of stabbing another man during a fight at Walmart will be heading to county court after the charges against him were waived on Thursday.

Justin D. Woods, 20, was charged with felony aggravated assault, misdemeanor simple assault, recklessly endangering another person, disorderly conduct and summary harassment after an incident outside of the store just after midnight on April 28.

The charges were waived to Butler County Court during a scheduled preliminary hearing before District Judge Kevin O'Donnell on Thursday. He is scheduled for formal arraignment in county court on June 20 before county Judge Tim McCune.

Butler Township police filed the charges after Woods allegedly stabbed Alex Dorenkamp, 19, of Chicora during a fight. The fight allegedly began following an incident the previous night between the two men, who then met by chance at the store, police said.
