Yesterday just before 4:30 pm, officers were dispatched to a disturbance involving a knife at Mt. View Apartments, 1840 Molalla Ave. Multiple callers reported that 57-year-old Tony Lee Lambson was armed with a knife and threatening a female. When we arrived, we learned the female victim lives in the same apartment complex as Mr. Lambson, but they do not know each other.
Mr. Lambson had gone to the victim’s apartment with the knife. Mr. Lambson entered her apartment, threatened the victim with the knife and attempted to assault the victim. The victim was not injured. Mr. Lambson went back to his apartment. Officers tried to get Mr. Lambson to surrender but he refused. Some nearby residents were evacuated for their safety. The Clackamas County Inter-Agency Swat Team and Crisis Negotiation Team responded to assist. Just after 6:30 pm, Mr. Lambson exited his apartment and was arrested without incident.
Mr. Lambson was lodged at the Clackamas County Jail for Burglary I, Attempted Assault II, Unlawful use of a weapon, Menacing, and PCS Meth.
