The investigation revealed the victim, a 15-year-old female juvenile, and a family member, identified as the accused, were involved in a verbal altercation that escalated.
During the encounter, the accused retrieved a knife and grazed the victim with the knife before a family intervened and took possession of the knife. The victim and the accused were eventually separated by another family member and the police were contacted.
The officer could move into the front yard before one of the dogs bit the officer in the hip area while the other dog latched onto the officer’s external vest. The officer discharged his department-issued firearm, striking both dogs.

Upon arriving at the residence, officers made contact with a 40-year- old male resident and determined there was no active domestic between the caller, identified as the accused, and the resident. While investigating the incident, officers determined a separate incident occurred earlier in the day where the accused struck the male resident. When officers attempted to take her into custody, the accused actively resisted and refused to follow officer’s commands. Officers quickly secured the accused and as they were escorting her to the police vehicle she kneed an officer. The accused was resecured, and no injuries were reported. Following the investigation, the accused, identified as Pamela Lynn GOSS, was arrested.
