P. v. Kelley CA3
On February 19, 2017, defendant Adam Anthony Kelley exchanged words with Michael F. at a gas station store in Olivehurst. They separately left the store, Michael leaving first. Michael waited outside and armed himself with a machete. Defendant left the store and, in the parking lot, Michael swung the machete at defendant but missed. Michael dropped the machete but picked it up as he ran away.

Michael was hospitalized for several days.
