Guilty Plea Entered Following Atchison Fight

(KAIR)--A Saint Joseph, Missouri woman pleads guilty to one felony count of aggravated battery. 

That happened Tuesday in Atchison County District Court, where 29-year-old Buffy Riley waived her right to a preliminary hearing, entering the plea instead. 

Sentening for Riley is set for February 19th. 

She was arrested last month in connection with a December 12th fight in the 1300 block of Atchison's Maple Street that sent another woman to the hospital. "She was subsequently transported by EMS to the hospital with facial injuries, and she had some pretty severe contusions and lacerations about her face,” Atchison Police Chief Mike Wilson told MSC News last month. He said Riley was not immediately located after the fight, but was located by Saint Joseph Police on December 23rd and taken into custody on an Atchison County district court warrant in connection with the altercation.
