Officers with the Fort Wayne Police Department responded to a residence in the 2600 block of Corvalis Avenue after receiving reports that an adult male had placed an adult female in a headlock and dragged her into the home. Witnesses also reported that a one-year-old child was inside the residence. Officers attempted multiple methods of contacting the occupants over an extended period of time but received no response.
