A man is in custody after an argument with another man escalated to a stabbing near the Arts District late Sunday night.

The man stabbed in the courtyard of an apartment complex at 915 Casino Center Drive about 11:20 p.m. was expected to survive his injuries, Lt. David Gordon with Metropolitan Police Department said.

Sgt. Steve Armbruster said a suspect was in custody but uncooperative. He could be heard yelling from a nearby police cruiser.

Gordon said the suspect ran after stabbing the other man. Police found him in a nearby alley with the help of a K-9 unit.

A woman was also arrested about 12:30 a.m. near the complex. Armbruster said her arrest was unrelated to the incident.

Grand Traverse County Sheriff Michael Shea said a motive behind the attack by Bradford Gille, 42, of Afton, Michigan, remains unclear. Gille, who Shea said had “prior assaultive incidents as well as controlled substance violations,” said very little as he was arrested.
