Bismarck, North Dakota – After threatening the clerk at the North Bismarck Simonson with a hatchet on December 23 at approximately 2:17 in the morning, a 36-year-old man from Bismarck was taken into custody and charged with terrorizing and criminal trespassing.
According to an affidavit, the man, Brently Iron Road, was involved in a verbal confrontation near the front door of the Simonson before leaving the store and then returning with a hatchet, which he brought with him to the front register and shook toward the clerk several times before leaving the store. He then left the store with the hatchet.
Iron Road claimed to the responding officers that he had never possessed a hatchet and that he had never been involved in a verbal altercation with the store clerk.
