A 23-year-old woman was subdued by an electronic stun gun and taken for a mental health hold after she tried to attack a customer with a steak knife at a Riverside K-Mart.
The incident occurred shortly after 8:30 a.m. Sunday at the K-Mart shopping center at 3001 Iowa Avenue, said John Freese, an assistant chief for UC Riverside's police department.
Freese said Sgt. Anthony Zamora from UC Riverside's police was at a nearby Farmer Boys restaurant when someone told him there was a knife-brandishing woman chasing someone inside the store.
Zamora made his way into the K-Mart where he reportedly saw the woman, steak knife in hand, trying to get to the customer.
The customer was trying to block the woman with a shopping cart, and the woman was climbing over the cart, Freese said.
