Bend Police reported that a man wanted in the alleged switchblade-knife attack of his girlfriend Thursday morning had been taken into custody, the department announced this evening via Twitter.

The tweet, posted at 6:24 p.m., said Carl Philip Gavic, 32, was in custody. About an hour earlier, Bend Police tweeted that the department was searching for Gavic, following up with photos and a description of a car he may have been using.

With help from Oregon State Police, Bend detectives found Gavic and arrested him after he left a rest stop on U.S. Highway 97 near Shaniko, according to a news release issued about 9 p.m. Detectives also learned the vehicle he was driving had been reported stolen in California.

Gavic’s 33-year-old girlfriend was stabbed near Murphy and Brosterhous roads at about 7:40 a.m., Lt. Clint Burleigh wrote in a news release. The pair were driving through Bend when the assault occurred.

The victim, whom police have not identified, was transported to St. Charles Bend with non-life threatening injuries. Gavic threatened to harm her further as well as their dog, Burleigh wrote. He left the scene of the attack.

Gavic also had an arrest warrant pending for first-degree robbery and first-degree assault, according to Burleigh.
