An Odessa man was arrested early Monday morning after his former girlfriend told police he forced his way into her apartment and chased the man he found inside around with a knife.
According to an Odessa Police Department report, officers received a disturbance call from the 1200 block of Harless Avenue around 1:30 a.m. Monday. The caller told a dispatcher Pedro Miguel Granados Juvier, 33, was chasing a 34-year-man with a knife.
When officers arrived they found the alleged victim extremely upset and hiding, the report stated. He told the officers Juvier chased him with a knife and threatened to kill him.
Juvier’s former girlfriend told officers she opened the front door of her apartment to let the 34-year-old man out and Juvier was waiting outside, the report stated. The 46-year-old said Juvier forced his way inside, grabbed a knife from her kitchen and chased the other man outside.
Juvier was found nearby and arrested on suspicion of burglary of a habitation, a first-degree felony punishable by five years to life in prison and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, a second-degree felony.
Juvier remained in the Ector County jail Monday afternoon. No bond had yet been set.
