WBHF Radio reported that the Bartow County SWAT team removed 37-year-old Yihua Wiseman from her residence on Wilson Street in Acworth early Saturday morning after a five-hour incident that began on Friday night.
According to the report, Wiseman allegedly threatened two people at the Lake Forest Country Club, lit a toilet paper roll on fire, and threw it into the woods causing a fire.
The Bartow County Fire Department helped to put the fire out.
The victims stated they had collected some pine straw and taken it to the woodline to dump on the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ property when Wiseman stood in the roadway carrying a hammer.
After she yelled at them continuously, Wiseman allegedly went inside her house, brought out the toilet paper, covered it in accelerant, set it on fire, and threw it on Army Corps property.
When the victims said they were calling law enforcement, she said she was going to her house to get a knife to “take care of them.”
When Bartow County deputies tried to make contact with Wiseman she pointed multiple knives at them, saying they would have to go in and get her.
After the SWAT incident and a visit to the hospital, deputies booked her into jail for arson in the third degree, obstructing a law enforcement officer, and two counts of terroristic threats and acts.
