GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Police asked the public to “avoid the area” after a woman barricaded herself in a northwest Grand Rapids home Tuesday afternoon.
Community members were urged to stay away from Leonard Street between Parmelee and West End avenues while the Grand Rapids Police Department responded to the situation.
The Grand Rapids Police Department (GRPD) tells FOX 17 a man was stabbed in the 1100 block of Maplegrove Drive. A woman then reportedly barricaded herself inside the home. No one else was inside at the time.
We're told the suspect turned herself over to police at around 6 p.m. and was taken into custody.
"It's nice to know there's a lot of police out there when you need them," a bystander told our crew on scene. "There was a lot of cars out here, lot of police cars."
