Upon arrival, officers began to interview the victim of the assault, when they were approached by a female witness, identified as Elizabeth Boxwell. As Boxwell approached the officers she removed a expandable baton from her front pocket. Officers ordered Boxwell to drop the baton several times, but she refused.
