“There is Blood in the Store” – Sunday domestic violence knife incident at an Ironwood, MI convenience store involves couple who have history of attacking one another

URGENT URGENT – U.P. Breaking News Bulletin – 3-25-18 – 9:55 p.m. CT 10:55 p.m. ET

Blood and a knife in an Ironwood, MI convenience store: Ironwood, MI domestic violence case shows Wisconsin couple have a history of injuring each other incident

(Ironwood, MI) – A quiet Sunday afternoon was broken in Ironwood, MI when a Wisconsin woman allegedly injured her husband in a domestic violence incident involving a knife inside an Ironwood convenience store.

The victim and suspect were later found in Iron County, Wisconsin, and this time he was the victim. It appears the couple have a history of domestic violence incidents as mutual combatants.

The victim also had a warrant out of Ironwood, MI for domestic violence – even though he was the victim this time.

Ironwood Public Safety officers answered the call at about 2:20 p.m. CT on Sunday afternoon, March 25, 2018.

It started with a call from the manager of the Krist Food Mart at 139 W. Cloverland Dr. in Ironwood, MI (near N. Lawrence St.).

Store manager Gary Etter said “he witnessed an assault inside the store,” the dispatcher told responding police officer. “There is blood in the store.”

The manager said he saw Storm “pull a knife on her – perhaps husband – Alex Storm.”

The couple “did leave – traveling towards Wisconsin in a red Chevy Impala,” the dispatcher told officers.

“I’ll be there in less than a minute,” said the officer assigned to the call, who arrived at 2:26 p.m. CT on Sunday afternoon, March, 25, 2018.

The suspect vehicle is a maroon burgundy 2001 Chevrolet Impala – registered to Nellie Ann Works of Wisconsin Rapids, WI – also known as Nellie A. Yatczak. Works has a Wisconsin conviction for burglary of a building or dwelling, a class F felony.
Police determined the suspect and victim (Storm coupe) are living with Works on 11784 Atlantic Street in the city of Iron Belt located in Iron County, WI.

A be-on-the-lookout (BOLO) of the vehicle was sent to Wisconsin including Hurley and Iron County, WI.

The lookout stated that officers should stop the vehicle on check on the condition of the possibly stabbed male occupant – Alex Storm.

The vehicle was found in Iron County, WI – along the victim, who was apparently not seriously injured.

The Ironwood investigating officer told the dispatcher that he doubts they will extradite the Sunday victim – Mr. Storm – back to Ironwood to face his original domestic violence charge.

It is unclear if charges were filed or if Mrs. Storm was taken into custody.

At least four U.P. residents have charged in violent attacks including a Michigan convicted child-related sex offender accused of causing bruises around victim’s neck – and four Houghton County youths up to alleged no good in Marquette area, and Delta County forces us now to print all names, all photos – and they want you to guess the charges

Meanwhile in the other case Friday night that started on Green Garden Road south of Beaver Grove, MI in Chocolay Township.

Mark Anthony Garrow

A manhunt was underway for a couple hours and ended Friday night for a south Chocolay Township man who has past psychiatric issues and was allegedly armed with a knife when authorities say he made threats to family members – who ended up locking themselves inside their home after he took off on a black snowmobile with red stripes.

Mark Anthony Garrow

29-year-old Mark Anthony Garrow of the Skandia area was booked into the Marquette County Jail at 9:04 p.m. on Fri. night, March 10, 2018.

The Skandia area resident is also wanted in Kentucky, Oklahoma, and now the additional serious charges in Marquette County, Michigan.

He is accused of allegedly point a knife at numerous relatives and possibly friends.
At one point, the suspect was thought to be in Marquette area – and later turned back up in south Chocolay Township on the 4000 block of Green Garden Road where the incident started.

Police kept tabs on the suspect after he fled with a snowmobile and the cops found tracks from the Yamaha snowmobile on Green Garden Road headed toward Trail Number 8.
Police found his snowmobile tracks on Kawbawgam Road and that led cops to think he was either headed to Munising or Marquette. Then it was feared he may be headed to Marquette, however he eventually went back home.
Garrow faces drug charges – possession of narcotics equipment – in the Paducah, Kentucky area – and authorities said they will extradite. He is also wanted on a felony in the Elk City, Oklahoma area. Another family member has lived in both of those states/areas.

Erin Marie Barabe MDOC mugshot

A Marquette County woman with four meth convictions – who has been the recipient of numerous prosecution breaks, is back in jail again – this time busted for domestic violence.

It appears she had been free only seven days.

37-year-old Erin Marie Barabe of Gwinn, MI was booked into the Marquette County Jail (MCJ) at 4:43 a.m. ET early Sat., March 10, 2018.

Barabe is charged with domestic assault.

Barabe has an additional address listed in Republic and Marquette. Bond for Barabe is set at $5,000.

State records show Barabe was lodged in the Delta County Jail on March 3, 2017 and released due to “population capacity.”

When released early from the DCDC jail this month, Barabe was serving time for meth – and a week later was arrested for domestic violence in Marquette County.
The Gwinn woman was arrested last fall for possessing methamphetamines and recently pleaded guilty to a lesser charge in Delta County Circuit Court.
In Sept. 15, 2017, Barabe, then 36, was arrested in Delta County on 10-year meth felony. She was jailed on an $85,000 bond.

Under a plea agreement, Barabe Feb. 20, 2018 was sentenced on a four-year felony.

Under the plea bargain, Delta County prosecutors dismissed the more serious drug charge and dropped a charge of fourth-offense habitual offender.

Barabe has three meth convictions dating back to June 2014.

She was on probation until Feb. 2015. It appears she served about a year in jail of a two-year sentence.
She pleaded guilt to three felony counts of possession of the controlled substance Methamphetamine in Marquette County.

Offense:
Three counts of controlled substance-possession of methamphetamine
Marquette County
2 year sentence
Date of Sentence: 6/27/2014

(Upper Peninsula of Michigan) – Just about as rampant as the U.P. drug problem, domestic assaults and other attacks were reported across the U.P. this weekend including behind a Soo nightspot and a woman accused of assaulting the cops in Delta County.
Many of the cases go unreported to the media by authorities, however here are the incidents or bookings we have been able to verify.
A Soo police officer apparently rolled up on an assault victim that had attacked moments earlier behind the popular nightspot – The Savoy at 117 W. Portage Avenue in Sault Ste. Marie, MI.
Send an ambulance to the rear of the Savoy – I’ve got a 23-year-old female with an injury to her head – she was assaulted – I’ll be out” on the scene, said an officer at about 2:16 a.m.
The victim was taken to War Memorial Hospital in the Soo.
After about 10 minutes of silence, Chippewa County 911 did a safety check and requested a “status” on their officer after who was still on the scene of an assault that left a woman with head injuries.
“I am secure central, said the officer about 2:27 a.m.
“I don’t think the suspect is on scene any longer, going to be out here with the victim for a little bit,” said the officer.
Officers did radio checks on several names, however it is not clear if arrests were made.
The police seemed particularly interested in a 21-year-old Sault Ste. Marie man, who had left the scene. However, the jail records do not indicate he was arrested.
