A Cheyenne man was arrested on Sunday morning after allegedly stabbing a woman multiple times at a local residence.

According to a statement from the Cheyenne Police Department, Anthony Brassard, 29, faces charges of attempted murder in connection with the incident.

At 3:40 a.m. Sunday, the Cheyenne Police Department’s SWAT team was called to the residence for a domestic violence call where they found a woman who had been stabbed.

The police department said she was transported to the Cheyenne Regional Medical Center where she is listed in serious condition.

Brassard barricaded himself in a bedroom and was unresponsive to the SWAT Crisis Negotiation Team, the statement said.

According to the police department’s Facebook post, the suspect “put on a tactical vest and refused to negotiate.”

“SWAT introduced gas and took the suspect in custody without incident,” the post reads.

The police department is collecting evidence at the scene and is not expected to update the story until Monday.
