Julie Winters, 46, of Portland, was charged with felony attempted assault of a federal officer.

Aziel Chambers, a 20-year-old from Merlin, faced charges of misdemeanor assault on a federal officer, creating a hazard on federal property, and failure to obey a lawful order.

Officials reported that Winters allegedly threw a knife at an officer, although it did not make contact. Attempting to flee, she was tased and subsequently subdued.

As officers attempted to take her into custody, she pulled a second large knife from her waistband, according to court documents. An officer disarmed Winters and arrested her.

The same evening, Chambers allegedly pointed a laser pointer at a federal officer’s eye, according to the release.

Chambers was also charged with failing to comply with an officer’s orders to leave the premises June 17 and for allegedly throwing an object at federal property June 20.  

Winters was detained pending future court proceedings, officials said. Pope and Chambers were released on conditions pending future court proceedings.

Attempting to assault a federal officer and inflict bodily injury is punishable by a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office. 

Misdemeanor assault of a federal officer is punishable by a maximum penalty of one year in prison. Failure to obey a lawful order and creating a hazard on federal property are Class C misdemeanors and carry a maximum penalty of 30 days in prison.
