SALINE COUNTY –Law enforcement authorities in Saline County are investigating a suspect after an altercation with a knife.

Just after 11 p.m. Wednesday a woman reported to police that 33-year-old Michael Lynn showed up at her Salina residence intoxicated. An argument ensued and he allegedly pushed her up against the wall and began choking her, according to Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester.

The woman attempted to escape and call the police when Lynn struck her in the head and threatened her.

Around that time, the victim’s roommate arrived and confronted Lynn.  He allegedly grabbed the roommate by the hair, pulling out her artificial extensions and shoving her into a coffee table. According to the police report, the roommate had several bald spots from the encounter.

The roommate then ran to the porch and called her boyfriend who arrived shortly before the Salina Police.

According to Capt. Forrester, the boyfriend entered the house to find Lynn on top of the female victim with a knife to her throat.

The victim told police that the boyfriend pulled Lynn off of her and took his knife.

Lynn allegedly ran to the kitchen and grabbed another knife. Capt. Forrester said that the boyfriend took Lynn to the ground, disarming him yet again.

When authorities arrived, the boyfriend had Lynn pinned to the ground, according to Capt. Forrester. The report did not specify at what point during the incident that the police were called or who made the call.

Lynn was treated for a cut to the head and was booked into the Saline County Jail early this morning. According to Capt. Forrester, authorities requested three counts of aggravated assault, three counts of criminal threat, two counts of domestic battery, aggravated intimidation of a witness, criminal restraint, criminal damage to property and battery.
