On September 6th, 2024 at 11:44am SPD responded to the area of 2000 N Division on a report of a stabbing.  911 was advised the suspect in the incident was a female.  As officers were arriving in the area, a Patrol Sergeant observed a female actively assaulting people with a knife.  While in the presence of the officer, the suspect had stabbed a male and was attempting to stab another subject on the ground when she was detained.  The quick response of officers prevented the victim on the ground from being injured.

Shortly after making contact with the suspect, officers located another subject who had been stabbed by the same female.  Medical aid was provided to the injured until additional resources arrived at the location.  Two victims were transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. 

Trischa R. Maravilla (31) was arrested and booked into the Spokane County Jail for 3 counts of 1st Degree Assault.
