A domestic disturbance in Edina escalated into a violent struggle with police that allegedly included an attempt by the suspect to take an officer’s handgun.

The incident happened Thursday, Jan. 29 at a home in the 5700 block of Schaefer Road, where officers were sent after a woman reported being pushed to the ground during an argument inside.

The woman told officers she got into an argument with her husband, later identified as Shady Mtanos Chahoud, 43, of Edina, and that he pushed her down inside the home. Officers spoke with the woman by phone before arriving and were told two children were inside the residence along with two adult witnesses.
