On May 13 at 8:59 p.m., officers were dispatched to the 3900 block of 26th Street North in Arlington for a report of a woman who had brandished a firearm at an individual inside a residence, and subsequently fired several shots into the front door of the home.

After officers established a perimeter, the suspect exited the home while brandishing a firearm, police said. She continued to approach officers despite commands to stop, police said.

Ultimately, police used a taster-like device to incapacitate her and recover the firearm.

The suspect, who was not identified by police, was taken to an area hospital for medical evaluation. The investigation is continuing.
