Parolee Who Left Brooklyn without Permission Arrested After Alleged Fight in Walmart Parking Lot

A woman has been hospitalized with what police are saying are "serious injuries" following a fight in the parking lot of a retailer in Herkimer, New York.

In a written statement police say they were called to Walmart early this morning, June 7, 2015, to investigate a call made to 911 during which the caller hung up.

When Herkimer Police arrived they say they were told that a man and woman were fighting in the parking lot.  According to the release, officers took Tiquan W. Gibbs into custody "(w)ith the assistance of two civilians."

Gibbs, who is considered a parole absconder by the New York State Division of Parole, is being held pending arraignment.  He is charged with the following:

• assault (first degree, a felony)
• criminal possession of a weapon (third degree, a felony)
• strangulation (second degree, a felony)
• unlawful imprisonment (first degree, a felony)
• menacing (second degree, a misdemeanor)

There is no word as to any potential charges he will face from moving from his primary residence in Brooklyn without notification to, or permission, from the parole board.
