A man wanted on a warrant faces other charges after he tried to force his way into his former girlfriend’s home Sunday night and threatened to cut her throat, according to police.

The former girlfriend said that Daniel Leduc, 24, of Bangor showed up at her First Street apartment uninvited and that when she refused to allow him in, he became enraged. Leduc began pounding on the windows, breaking several of them, she told Bangor police Officer Eric Tourtelotte.

Leduc held up a sickle-shaped knife to a window so she could see it and told her, “I am going to cut your throat,” the woman told Tourtelotte. She said she had feared that had he entered, he would have seriously injured her or worse.

Authorities already had Leduc in custody when Tourtelotte spoke to the former girlfriend. Leduc had been outside the apartment yelling when police arrived about 9 p.m.

Ordered off the porch, Leduc stood in the driveway but refused to turn around so he could be handcuffed, reported Bangor police Officer Rob Angelo. After several refusals from Leduc, the officer handcuffed Leduc anyway and noticed a silver knife in the man’s coat pocket, according to the police report.

Leduc claimed to use it for his job, cutting sheetrock, but refused to say why he was causing such a ruckus, Angelo reported.

Authorities charged Leduc with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon and criminal mischief, and the police reported he was wanted on a warrant.

A Veazie man wasn’t supposed to have any contact with a Bangor woman after his arrest on a charge of terrorizing, but the woman said he has called her dozens of times.

The woman said Monday that Andrew Joseph, 53, has made more than 40 calls to her in recent days. One of those times, Joseph threatened to kill her, she told Bangor police Officer Bill Lawrence.

Joseph was arrested by Veazie police later that same day on a charge of violation of condition of release, stemming from his Dec. 10 arrest for alleged terrorizing.
