John Iaffaldano, age 57, of Milford, was arrested on Sunday, March 28, for allegedly threatening to kill the neighboring business owner, Milford Police said.
Iaffaldano was arrested after Milford Police responded to the area of 158 Research Drive on the report of a man displaying a shotgun.
An investigation found that Iaffaldano allegedly repeatedly called the owner of a neighboring business, using racial slurs, and threatening to kill the other owner. The owner then went to check on their business, police said.
At this point, Iaffaldano came out of his business holding what was later determined to be an airsoft gun and pointed it at the other owner, police said.
He was charged with threatening, harassment, and breach of peace and released on a promise to appear ticket.
