26-year-old Michael Green was seen going through mailboxes on Love Circle on July 25th. As officers were dispatched, they were alerted that Green was now armed with a sword and approaching an individual with it. Once officers arrived, they observed a sword on the ground next to Green, who was throwing packages off the porch of a residence on Love Circle. After observing this, Green was told to stop and was detained. When officers spoke with the victim of the incident, Mark Arrieta, he stated that he observed Green going through mailboxes and asked him, “What are you doing?” After saying that, Green approached him armed with a sword, asking who he voted for. As Arrieta retreated into his home, Green began unsheathing his sword. Green then started to bang on the glass door to the point that Arrieta thought he would break in. While Green was banging on the door, Arrieta believed he heard him say, “I will kill you,” which caused him to fear for his life. One of Green’s neighbors stated that he saw Green in the street armed and causing a disturbance. The witness said that he observed Green yelling threats toward Arrieta while striking the door. Green was then taken into custody for aggravated assault.
