29-year-old Ashlee Muse had a domestic altercation with her roommate, Macio Austin Calma, at their Harding Place apartment on August 31st. A neighbor called 911, stating that her neighbors were fighting, and one of them had a knife in their hand. When officers arrived, they located Calma and Muse, who had a knife in her hand. Officers told Muse to put the knife down. However, she put it in her purse and went inside her room instead, where she was detained. Muse and Calma refused to provide details about the incident. The caller gave officers footage from her ring camera showing Muse and Calma both holding knives. It further revealed that Calma was trying to stop Muse from grabbing the knife from his hand. During this, Muse was yelling and waving her knife around as if she were going to stab him.
Then, when Calma separated himself from the situation, Muse threw his slippers off the second-floor balcony three times. Then, on the third time, Muse and Calma approached each other. Muse continued waving her knife around while trying to retrieve Calma’s knife. When they backed away from each other, Calma turned around, holding his wrist, stating, “You just jacked me for no reason!” Officers noted that Calma had a cut on his wrist with fresh blood, consistent with the footage. Despite this, he told officers it was from a scab he had picked off recently. After officers told Calma they reviewed footage of the occurrence, he told them he was keeping the knife that he had away from her. Muse was taken into custody for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
