Officials said Winters then threw the knife at an officer, but it did not hit anyone. She was tased while attempting to flee and was taken to the ground.

As officers attempted to take her into custody, she pulled a second large knife from her waistband, according to court documents. An officer disarmed Winters and arrested her.

Winters was detained pending future court proceedings, officials said. Pope and Chambers were released on conditions pending future court proceedings.
