New information, including details about a machete attack, has been released about the Sunday evening incident in Great Falls.
On March 31, four people, including Tyler Hinsen, were outside a residence on the 900 block of 2nd Avenue South when Daniel Gregory stopped and got out of his vehicle. Gregory, Hinsen, and another man started arguing and Gregory had a machete, according to an affidavit.
Gregory had reportedly threatened two of the people with a machete on March 17 near Warden Park.
