Ray Shupe said officers were dispatched to the Four Winds Motel at 20797 U.S. Highway 160 in west Durango around midnight Saturday for a disturbance.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators said the disturbance began after a tenant at the motel left a voicemail with the manager to complain about a toilet that had been broken for some time and wasn\u2019t being fixed.<\/p>\n<p>But because the tenant \u2013 identified as Jarrod Angel Davenport \u2013 was so intoxicated, the manager couldn\u2019t understand the message and went to Davenport\u2019s room to check in, Shupe said.<\/p>\n<p>After opening the door, Davenport allegedly grabbed a couple of knives out of his pocket and threatened the manager. The manager then threatened to call Davenport\u2019s probation officer, at which time the manager was stabbed, according to police.<\/p>\n<p>The manager retreated from the door and called out for someone to call 911, Shupe said. The manager then ran to his car to get a bat while Davenport continued to chase and threaten him.<\/p>\n<p>It was at this time officers arrived and told both men to drop their weapons, Shupe said, which they did on command.<\/p>\n<p>The manager suffered serious injuries to the chest and groin, none of which was life-threatening. He went to the hospital on his own, Shupe said.<\/p>\n<p>Davenport was arrested on suspicion of attempted second-degree murder, second-degree assault and menacing.<\/p>\n<p><em class=\"mwc_shirttail\"><a href=\"mailto:jromeo@durangoherald.com\">jromeo@durangoherald.com<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Davenport, 41, arrested on suspicion of attempted murder<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":51451,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[168,1065,28,29],"naviga_topic":[],"class_list":["post-51450","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-crime","tag-durango-police-department","tag-headlines","tag-newsletter"],"acf":[],"author_name":"dh_admin","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51450","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51450"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51450\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51451"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51450"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51450"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51450"},{"taxonomy":"naviga_topic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dh.durangoherald.com\/tj\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/naviga_topic?post=51450"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
