ST. CLOUD -- St. Cloud police have arrested the suspect allegedly involved in Tuesday's knife assault in North St. Cloud.

Shortly before 6:30 p.m. Friday, officers searched an apartment in the 400 block of 8th Avenue North and found 36-year-old Lazaro Diaz of St. Cloud.

Diaz jumped out of a second floor window to try to escape but a police dog prevented him from fleeing. Assistant Police Chief Jeff Oxton says Diaz did have a felony warrant out for his arrest.

Diaz was taken to the St. Cloud Hospital and treated for minor injuries that he recieved from jumping out of the window. He was later taken to Stearns County Jail where he's being held on multiple charges including, fleeing police in a motor vehicle, 2nd degree assault and felony domestic assault.
