Police responded to reports of assault, found a woman and man with injuries, and were forced into a tense negotiation as the suspect threatened officers. One officer was struck, sustaining a suspected broken arm, and seven vehicles—including five police cruisers—were damaged. The man was eventually subdued around 2:20 AM, arrested on multiple charges, and remains in custody as authorities assess the full extent of the chaos and community impact.
