Man Charged With Stabbing Friend at Winsted Apartment

A 23-year-old Winsted man is accused of stabbing a friend repeatedly in his apartment on Friday.

Police said Louis Colon, 22, and two other friends were at Weston Parent’s home at the Gilbert Clock Shop Apartments on Wallens Street when Parent grew violent.

Colon told police Parent attacked him “for no reason” and began punching him in the head and face, then retrieved a kitchen knife and stabbed him multiple times. He and the other two guests ran out of the apartment and a neighbor called 911, police said.

Parent was charged with first-degree assault, second-degree assault, disorderly conduct, possession of cannabis and possession of drug paraphernalia. He’s being held on a $100,000 bail and is due in court May 12.

Police said Parent is on probation for a 2012 robbery conviction.
