When officers arrived on scene, they quickly located two people who were involved, Ponichtera said.
After 9 p.m., a man called 911 claiming to be the victim of a shooting, but that was not the case.
News Center 7 previously reported that a man was grazed by a bullet based on reports from Montgomery County dispatch supervisors, however, no one was shot.
Police determined this man started a fight with a knife in his possession. He told an officer on scene that he was not shot despite telling 911 dispatchers the opposite, Ponichtera said.
The man does not live at the apartment building and was trespassed from the property.
The two people who got into a fight know each other, Ponichtera said.

Charges will be considered by the Montgomery County Prosecutor.
It is unclear why this fight began or if anyone was injured.
News Center 7 is working to learn the identity of the man arrested,
