When troopers arrived, police say they learned that a man broke a pickup truck’s window with an anti-theft device, assaulted the driver with it and threatened to kill everyone in the vehicle before running off.
Police found the man at a nearby shopping center and he was charged with second-degree assault, aggravated menacing, terroristic threatening, and other offenses. He was released after posting bail.
