According to Michigan State Police, the stabbing was reported at around 6 p.m. on Oct. 16 at a residence in the 21400 block of Bethlawn Boulevard. The alleged assailant, subsequently identified as Malone, had come to the home to visit his child when an argument erupted and the woman was stabbed, MSP stated. He then fled.

First responders transported the injured woman and her unborn child to a local hospital in stable condition, MSP stated. The Oakland Press reached out to MSP and the Oakland County Prosecutor’s Office for an update on their conditions but hasn’t heard back yet.

A coordinated effort between MSP and the Sumpter Township Police Department led to Malone’s arrest, officials said. He was booked into the Oakland County Jail shortly after 1 a.m. on Oct. 17, the jail roster shows.

Malone’s next court appearance is scheduled for a probable cause conference in 45th District Court on Oct. 29.
