BODFISH MAN ARRESTED FOR ATTEMPTED MURDER

A Bodfish man has been arrested for throwing a knife and a saw at deputies after they say he tried to kill his neighbor and burn his house down.

A K-9 wrestled 64-year-old Kirk Allison to the ground on Friday evening at the home on Rocky Road south of Bodfish Canyon Road. One of the knives hit a deputy, but he was not injured.
