The Alexandria Police Department (APD) announced that Kory Anding, a 28-year-old man who allegedly struck his roommate in the head with a machete, has been arrested.

The incident occurred in the 5400 block of North Morgan Street near Lincolnia on Dec. 23.

Police said last month that they were searching for Anding after the alleged assault left the victim with a serious but non-life-threatening wound.

In a release, APD said Anding was arrested on Thursday, Jan. 11, and is charged with aggravated malicious wounding of an adult male.
