Wentworth Ave., around 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 10, Deputy Chief Daniel O’Connor said at a news briefing.
Inside, they found a man holding a woman at knifepoint in a bedroom.
Officers spoke with the man and he eventually let the woman go, O’Connor said. But he refused to put down his knife.

Nevada woman shot and killed suspected carjacker with his own gun
Victim grabbed suspect’s gun when he set it down to try to figure out how to start her push-to-start car
By Brie Stimson | Fox News
A woman shot and killed a suspected carjacker in self-defense last month when he was trying to drive off in her car in a North Las Vegas neighborhood, police said this week, according to a report.The victim and a friend had parked near another friend’s house as they waited to go inside for an early Thanksgiving dinner on Nov. 19 when a car parked in front of them, they told Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, according to FOX 5 Las Vegas.
Two or three men got out of the car and allegedly pulled the woman out of the driver’s seat and her friend out of the passenger’s side. One of the suspects got in but couldn’t figure out how to drive it because it was a push-to-start.
When the victim realized the suspect had placed the gun in his lap to figure out the car, she grabbed it and ran, telling her friend to run, too.
As she tried to run away, the suspect tackled her and wouldn’t let her go.

Hope y’all enjoy these “poor victim selection skilz” FGS as much as I do. My IT Man has been doing some tweaking of my search engines giving me the chance to make some deeper dives into suppressed news stories. Gotta be quick tho, ’cause they can go “poof” real fast. Next step is to do a work around of the pay walls.
Anybody else getting an odor of hot bearing grease?
The Truth will set ye free.
I wouldn’t tread on Ms Thang, but I would snuggle with her. Sorry, OAM, I’m put myself into time out. You really shouldn’t leave me unsupervised.
“…stabbing him in the shoulder and head.”
This is where weak-hand practice comes in handy.
