`responsible was described as a white female, standing in the hallway, possibly wearing a
`cheetah print shirt.
`. Once | arrived on scene, | briefly spoke with the victim, who was later identified as Anis Yarrow
`Ali, at the west side entrance to the apartment building. Anis stated the responsible female,
`who was later identified as Sandra Pearl Thorley, was somewhere up on the third floor of the
`apartment building. After receiving this information,
`| cleared the third floor hallway of the
`l did not locate Sandra standing in the hallway, but due to prior calls for
`apartment building.
`| knew Sandra lived in Apt. No. 304 at the call location. | positioned myself outside of
`service,
`Sandra’s apartment door and waited until my partners arrived on scene.
`. Once Officer Secord and Sergeant Voxland arrived on scene and positioned themselves
`| began knocking on Sandra’s door in an attempt to speak with her and receive her
`behind me,
`statement on what had happened. After knocking on the door to Apt. No. 304 multiple times,
`could hear a female’s voice coming from inside, which | could confirm was Sandra’s based off
`numerous prior calls for service with her. Sandra refused to open the door to her apartment
`and instead yelled at officers stating something to the effect that police officers never help her
`when she calls law enforcement. Due to Sandra being uncooperative,
`| went downstairs to
`a statement from Anis while my partners made further attempts to communicate with
`andra.
`rSeceive
`located Anis standing in the second floor of the apartment building outside of Apt. No. 203.
`Anis advised he lives in Apt. No. 203 with his grandmother, who was later identified as Furaha
`Sahal Hassan, but was inside of Apt. No. 105 visiting his cousins and an aunt, who was later
`identified as Fatuma Ali Aden. Anis stated as he was exiting Apt. No. 105 to go back to his
`apartment, he saw Sandra standing in the first floor hallway. While Anis was exiting Apt. No.
`105, his cousin, approximately two-years old, who was not
`identified, began crying and
`followed Anis into the hallway because he wanted to go with. Anis advised he tried to get his
`cousin to go back inside of Apt. No. 105 and Sandra began screaming at him saying, “You
`f*cking bitch, leave the little kid alone.” Anis stated he was trying to “avoid” Sandra and get his
`cousin back inside. Anis began “pushing” his cousin into the apartment and Sandra pulled out
`a “purple scissor” and begin walking towards him.
`. After Sandra pulled out the “purple scissor” Anis stated he started to back away and turned
`around slowly. Anis then ran towards the east side of the apartment building entrance and
`exited the building. Anis stated Sandra had followed him so he held the east side entrance
`door shut so Sandra could not exit the apartment building. As Anis was holding the door shut,
`Sandra threatened to call the police and pulled out a “kitchen knife” which was described as
`being approximately one foot long, having a black handle with scratches, and a silver serrated
`blade. After pulling out the kitchen knife, Anis advised Sandra stabbed the glass door he was
`holding shut multiple times and then turned around and walked away.
`Immediately after Sandra had walked away, Anis stated he ran to a friend’s house to call
`law
`enforcement because he does not have a phone, but nobody was home. Anis then ran back to
`the apartment building and stood outside of his grandmother’s apartment, which is No. 203, on
`the north side of the building and begin screaming for Furaha to drop him the apartment
`building keys so he could get inside. After retrieving the keys from Furaha, Anis ran to Apt.
`No. 105 and had his aunt, Fatuma, call 911. Once 911 was contacted, Anis waited outside of
`the west side entrance for police officers to arrive.
`. Anis described the responsible female, who was later identified as Sandra Pearl Thorley, as a
`looked like a crack head, pinkish purple hair,
`“white female, approximately 5’5” tall, chubby,
`approximately 50-years old, wearing jeans and a light pink sweatshirt, and having an unknown
`tattoo on the left side of her chest.” When asked how he felt after being threatened with a
`scissor and a knife, Anis stated he was “scared” and “terrified.” Anis also stated, “l thought |
`was going to die” and “l didn’t think | was going to have a future.” Anis also informed me
