Upon arrival it was determined that both of them had been taking turns assaulting each other. Both were arrested and charged with domestic assault and lodged at the Ingham County Jail. 4/2/17 Delhi units responded to an apartment complex 2342 N. Aurelius for a female subject who was making threats toward several of her neighbors. We are very familiar with this female so when we tried to make contact with her she would not let us into her apartment. After several minutes of negotiating with her through the door she began to make statements that she was going to hurt herself. Her door was unlocked so we made entrance into her apartment to keep her from harming herself. She was then taken into protective custody and transported to CMH where she was admitted for mental health issues. 4/10/17 Deputy VanElls received information that a female victim was being held against her will at a hotel in the area of Cedar/Aurelius. She was also able to determine the name of the female victim and the male suspect who was holding her against her will. However we were unable to determine what room she was in. After several hours of surveillance a female subject came out of a room that

During our interview with her we able to determine that we had enough information to get a search warrant for the room and arrest the male subject. Once we obtained the search warrant the male subject had already left the room. After a lengthy week long investigation we were able to get a warrant for the subject s arrest. The subject, 46 year old Alphonso Russell was arrested and lodged at the Ingham County Jail on charges of Criminal Sexual Conduct 1 st degree and kidnapping. He is currently lodged at ICJ awaiting future court dates. 4/16/17 Deputy Daza was contacted by the Meridian Township Police Department to check a residence in Delhi Manor. They had 3 subjects in custody for breaking into cars in their township and they were driving a car that registered to a subject in Delhi Manor.
