Repeat felon slashes child’s neck in Daytona beach. Charges were just dropped last week for a previous knife assault case against the attacker. Unbelievable.

The random attack happened around 10:05 p.m. on South Atlantic Avenue, just south of Main Street, in Daytona Beach.
Daytona Beach police said the victim, whose age has not been released, suffered a severe neck laceration and was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center. The child’s condition has not been released.
The charges against Long represent his fifth felony case in Volusia County, according to county records, which also show he has been charged in five misdemeanor cases.
In a court filing dated Feb. 10, though, an assistant state attorney wrote that prosecutors would no longer pursue the earlier charges (aggravated assault with a knife) against Long. The filing does not provide any reason for prosecutors dropping those charges.
