The victims allege that Graham had a steak knife, cutting one victim's shoulder and allegedly putting the knife to the throat of another victim.

Officers found Graham locked in an upstairs bedroom. After several attempts to get her to open the door, Graham reportedly opened the door and stepped back.

Officers claim she was holding an empty beer bottle in an aggressive manner and refused to drop it. That led officers to Taser the suspect. When Graham allegedly refused to put her hands behind her back to be cuffed, she was Tasered a second time.

Officers noted a cut on Graham's hand consistent with a knife blade. She was treated at Trident Medical Center and released. The knife was eventually located in the front yard, according to police.
