MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- A Fitchburg girl who allegedly told police she's fascinated with death has been charged with trying to kill another teenager at her foster home.
Fourteen-year-old Noa M. Jensen was charged in adult court Friday with attempted first-degree intentional homicide.
A prosecutor says Jensen was placed in the foster home as a child in need of protective services.
The criminal complaint says no one was injured in the attack Wednesday, which ended when a police officer threatened to use a stun gun on Jensen unless she put down her knife.
A 16-year-old girl told police she confronted Jensen for revealing a secret. She says the two argued, and Jensen grabbed a knife and tried to stab her.
Online court records didn't list an attorney for Jensen on Saturday.
