A police officer and his K9 responded to the scene and pursued the suspect, who pulled a knife, but were able to take the man into custody. Luckily, no one was seriously hurt in either the rock-throwing or knife-pulling incidents, though the suspect did receive a minor bite wound from the police dog, reported Q13 Fox News.
I-5 was shut down in both directions as police investigated the incident, but the roadway has since been reopened.
The unnamed suspect was booked into the Snohomish County Jail on charges of assault and reckless endangerment.
