Knife at Knifepoint in Barre | Montpelier News
Description
A 26-year-old man, Kyle Hamilton, faces up to 16 years in prison after allegedly holding a woman at knifepoint in Barre during a heated argument. Charged with felony aggravated domestic assault and violating release conditions, Hamilton initially denied any threat, claiming he only grabbed the knife to harm himself. The victim, who said she felt unsafe in the new relationship, told officers Hamilton was angry and wielding the knife — though she later admitted she feared for her life. A witness corroborated the victim’s account, describing Hamilton grabbing the knife and the victim pleading for him to put it down while live-streaming on social media. Hamilton, already under prior charges including assault on a corrections officer, remains jailed without bail as the case progresses.
