OREM, Utah — An Orem man who allegedly threatened another person with a gun after being confronted over park rules concerning leashed dogs has been arrested.
Jacob Daniel Walker, 40, was arrested Saturday and faces one charge of Aggravated Assault.
According to court documents, officers were called to Timpanogos Park on June 16 following reports of a man threatening others with a gun.
When officers arrived at the park, they spoke with the victim, who stated that the suspect, later identified as Walker, was walking his dog off-leash when the victim confronted him on park rules. The victim stated that Walker became angry and yelled, "Get the (expletive) out of here," while pointing a handgun at the victim's face.
The victim immediately left the area, called 911, and provided first responders with a general direction of where Walker had gone.
Officers located Walker in the parking lot of Canyon View Park and recovered a firearm loaded with 11 bullets. At that point, police said Walker invoked his right to remain silent.
