COLUMBUS, Ohio — Police say a passionate hockey fan made physical threats against the Columbus Blue Jackets in a series of phone calls to the team’s arena during a game.
Columbus Police Sgt. Rick Weiner says 52-year-old Peter Stenzel was arrested Thursday and charged with inducing panic for threatening physical harm against the team during its win over the Calgary Flames.
Weiner says police traced the phone calls to Stenzel’s Columbus home, where they found him wearing a Flames T-shirt. Police would not say if specific players were targeted or what the threats entailed.
Stenzel was being held at the Franklin County Jail pending a Saturday court hearing.
Blue Jackets spokesman Todd Sharrock says the team will not comment on security matters.
