FARGO (trfnews.i234.me) — A Fargo man is facing felony terrorizing charges after a disturbing incident at St. Anthony’s Church on Sunday at 11:13 a.m.
Police responded to a disturbance call and were informed that Steven J. Blotsky had been attending church for the past six months, but his behavior had recently grown increasingly aggressive.
According to witnesses, Blotsky confronted another male churchgoer and allegedly threatened violence, stating:
“Don’t f*** with me. I’ve got guns at home, and I’ll get them and come back. I have a knife, and I will come get you within three feet. I am the Martyr son.”
Police arrested Blotsky at the scene, and he is now charged with felony terrorizing. No injuries were reported, but the frightening nature of the threats has raised concerns among churchgoers.
More details will emerge as the investigation continues.
