Police found the woman, who was known to them, at the mother’s home. The woman’s mother said the woman needed help and had not slept in days. The woman went inside the house, saying to her mother, “Why are you doing this? I don’t need your help.” The mother told police she feared her daughter was out of control and would cause problems at the house. By this time, EGFD rescue had arrived but the woman ran from them, waving her arms in the air. As police tried to contain the woman, she became combative.
