Cheviot police were called to an apartment complex on North Bend Road early yesterday following a report of a stabbing. Responding just after 7:30 a.m., they found a man suffering from a neck wound. The injured party, who was able to speak, identified his alleged assailant by name and gave his description before being transported to the hospital in stable condition, as detailed by WLWT.

The suspect, Danyou'll Mimes, initially fled the scene but was subsequently located by a K9 unit on Glenmore Avenue. The pursuit led officers to a backyard where Mimes was apprehended and taken to the Hamilton County Justice Center. There, he faces charges for felonious assault and domestic violence, FOX19 reported.

In a harrowing 911 call shared by Local12, the victim expressed his shock, saying, "I thought I was dead." The man identified Mimes as his son, describing a violent struggle where the knife broke and ultimately led to the suspect’s flight and the temporary closure of several streets around Harvest Home Park during the search.
