    Terroristic threats
A knife-wielding man slashed at
his walls and refrigerator, appar
ently angry because someone stole
his video camera.
Lincoln Police were called to
135 F St. early Saturday morning
on a disturbance call. When they got
there, the man’s girlfriend said he
became enraged when he couldn’t
find the camera.
The man kicked down his own
apartment door and went in to get a
butcher knife, Lincoln Police Sgt.
Ann Heermann said. He then walked
in the hall and down to another apart
ment, where he stabbed the door.
Heermann said the man claimed
he was going to kill someone be
cause of the missing camera. The
man went back to his own apart
ment where he slashed the walls and
the refrigerator.
Heermann said the man’s girl
friend, who was in the apartment at
the time with her 4-year-old daugh
ter, told officers she was scared she
was going to be hurt.
Officers booked 46-year-old
Wesley Baldwin for making terror
istic threats.

It wasn’t quite burning the house
down, but it was close.
Police and fire units were called
to a construction site on South 14th
Street between Stockwell and Calvert
streets at 10:23 p.m. Sunday on re
ports of flames coming from the site.
When emergency crews arrived,
they found the outhouse engulfed
in flames.
Heermann said there were no
suspects, and investigators believe
the fire may have been started by
lighted toilet paper.
Damage was estimated at $ 1,500.

was reportedly trapped inside.
Emergency crews had most of
the 400 block of South 13th Street
