Man allegedly threatened to kill after anger management class
DAYTON — Police arrested a man who, fresh from his first anger management class, threatened to kill his 84-year-old mother and three other people on Tuesday, Jan. 6.
Officers responded to the 1900 block of Coventry Avenue at about 6:30 p.m. after receiving a call that a woman’s son was yelling at her, according to a police report. When officers arrived they discovered a visibly shaken 84-year-old woman whose son told police he was upset that she was telling someone else “my business.”
After officers separated mother and son, they learned that the son had just been to the VA hospital for his first anger management class that day. The woman told police the son, 49, threatened to kill her, her health care nurse, the nurse’s son and a neighbor, the report said.
The son told his mother “that he was going to kill her, then blindfold (the nurse), take a baseball bat to his head, and then later on, everyone would find (the nurse’s) baby in a dumpster far away,” the report said.
The mother said she was frightened of her son and wanted to press charges because “something needs to happen.”
The son was arrested on a charge of aggravated menacing.
