Antonio Garcia


KITTERY, Maine — Police arrested a man after he threatens his co-worker with a large knife Saturday.

At about 11 a.m. Kittery Police responded to a local business after an employee called to report that a fellow employee had threatened him with a knife.

Antonio R. Garcia, 45, of Wainwright Ave. in Kittery, Maine was arrested and charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon, a class C felony.

The incident occurred after a heated verbal argument among three employees of the Suds and More store on Shapleigh Road.

Garcia allegedly threatened another employee with a large kitchen knife. Garcia was unaware that the other employee was in possession of a legally permitted concealed handgun.

When threatened with the knife, the other employee drew his handgun in self-defense and ordered Garcia to drop the knife, which he did.

Garcia, who according to the Kittery police, is not a U.S. citizen, was processed at the police station and subsequently transported to the York County Jail after a hold was placed on him by the Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency.

Antonio R. Garcia, 45, of Wainwright Ave. in Kittery, Maine was arrested and
charged with criminal threatening with a dangerous weapon, a class C felony.

Ok now class, What do you think will happen to Mr. Garcia?
Jail Time? He should, and You and I would, but you'd be Wrong!

The last sentence contains the telling clue.

Garcia, who according to the Kittery police, is not a U.S. citizen, was
processed at the police station and subsequently transported to the York
County Jail after a hold was placed on him by the Federal Immigration and
Customs Enforcement Agency.

He's on his way to be handed over to ICE who'll probably just deport him.
No Jail time because it's much cheaper than warehousing him in a US jail.

So what will be Mr. Garcia punishment? He'll have to go home get new forged
documents SSN, Name and walk back across the border again. That's all.
They're going make him change his name and renter the US again.
