A Lincoln man was arrested after police say he threatened two upstairs neighbors with a steak knife around 8:30 Thursday morning near 28th and P. Sergeant Chris Vollmer says 51 year old Dana Wright called police saying his upstairs neighbors were stomping on the floor.
Officers cleared the call and left. Vollmer says about a half hour later officers were called back to the same residence. “The caller advised as soon as police left the same neighbors jumped on their floor and broke his light fixture,” Vollmer says.
The officers spoke with the upstairs neighbors, an 18 year old man and his 20 year old sister. They showed officers a cellphone video of of Wright yelling and approaching them at their open front door with a steak knife.
“The neighbors retreated back into their apartment in fear of Wright, who then returned to his apartment,” Vollmer says. Wright was taken into custody and booked into jail for terroristic threats and use of a weapon to commit a felony.
