Coral Springs, Florida – According to court records show, a 27-year-old man was arrested Sunday after he chased and threatened a man with a butcher knife, court records show.

According to an arrest affidavit filed by Coral Springs Police, he was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, resisting an officer, and trespassing following the Nov. 14 assault inside a home in the 3500 block of Northwest 82nd Avenue.

“You have kids?” Shillingford allegedly asked the officers, according to the affidavit. “You better not let me find them ‘cause I’m gonna slap them in the face. I’m gonna rub my d–k all over their tongue. Then I’m gonna have ‘em go back to their daddy crying.”
