A 37-year-old Carson City man was arrested Tuesday in the 100 block of Corbett Street on a misdemeanor charge of allegedly making threats, a Carson City sheriff's deputy said.
At 9:15 p.m. officers were dispatched to the area regarding a noise complaint. Upon arrival from the street the officers could hear loud music coming from an apartment. An officer met with the suspect inside the apartment who agreed to turn down the music.
About 30 minutes later officers were dispatched back to the Corbett street address where they met with a person from a nearby apartment who said that after deputies left the man began to make threats. The witness said the man began to scream at and said he was going to kill everyone in the apartment, the arrest report states.
The witness said there was a past incident when the man had a machete in his pants and was pacing back and forth outside the apartment saying he was going to kill them. After this threat the witness said they feared for their life.
Officers spoke with three other witnesses, who all said they heard the man threatened to kill them. One of the witnesses made a citizens arrest on the man for threats. Officers took the man into custody at 9:51 p.m. and transported him to jail.
While traveling to the jail, the man made numerous statements saying "when I get out you're going to have to pick me up again," and "all I said was come down here and I will kick your ass," the arrest report states.
The man blew a .25 preliminary breath test at jail. Bail: $637.
