Once onscene, officers determined that the suspect fled the residence still armed with the knife. Their investigation led to a second Westside Grand Rapids home where it was believed the suspect may have fled to. As officers were setting up a perimeter, three females simultaneously exited the home, two adults and one 11 year old juvenile. Until it could be determined that the individuals were not the suspect, nor armed with a weapon, the three were ordered back to officers and detained. The homeowner gave consent to search the home, and it was deemed that none of the three individuals that exited the home were the suspect officers were searching for nor was the suspect in the home. The females were subsequently released.

An additional nearby home was then checked and the suspect was located and arrested. The woman was charged with Assault with Intent to Murder, a warrant, and Resisting and Obstructing Arrest. The victim was treated at an area hospital for her injuries and has been released.

Following a complaint filed on behalf of the 11 year old female, the Grand Rapids Police Department opened an internal investigation which is still ongoing.
