EVANSVILLE, Ind. (WFIE) - A court hearing is set for the woman accused of pulling a knife on Evansville authorities during a court-ordered eviction in March.

It happened at Eden East Apartments just off North Green River Road.

Authorities were on scene of a stand-off for nearly three hours.

We’re told 46-year-old Antwynette Pope surrendered after deputies fired tear gas into the apartment.
