CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. -- Five people were taken into custody after police respond to a fight on Sunday.
Cape Girardeau Police Department said it happened at 1:50 p.m. when officers went out to the 1100-block of North Sprigg Street for a disturbance.
Once the officers got there, they saw multiple people in a parking lot, including two females identified as Keliah Miles, 24 of Cape Girardeau, and Maishael Miles, 26 of Cape Girardeau, who were fighting each other.
The first officer who got there tried to separate the two females but was unsuccessful. The officer then tased Maishael, making contact with her right arm which then caused her to let go of Keliah.
The officer then tried to put Maishael in handcuffs, however, she pulled away. Police said Maishael also did not comply to commands given by the officer.
After not making good contact with the first taser, the officer then tased Maishael a second time. After this, the officer was then able to place her in handcuffs.

Police said an officer was trying to detain her for failing to disperse. That's when Parker was pulling away from the officer. Another officer then tased her and assisted to the ground. Police then said Parker continued to refuse to put her hands behind her back and was stunned to get control of her.
Parker was taken into custody and faces charges of resisting arrest and trespassing.
Jaysean Owens, 25 of Sikeston, was also taken into custody. Owens faces charges of resisting arrest and trespassing.
