DENTON (CBSDFW.COM) – Police in Denton have arrested a man who is believed to have been making terroristic threats on Wednesday morning. The entire incident actually started on Tuesday night, but culminated with a large police presence at the Denton County Courthouse, where the man was trying to get....

Authorities were responding to an unrelated call Tuesday night when confronted by 28-year-old Peshwaz Azad Waise. He was speaking irrationally about God and Allah, according to police. However, he was not violating any laws, so the officers went on their way

Police with the University of North Texas then responded to a disturbance call at an IHOP restaurant located on the southeast side of campus, where Waise was continuing to speak irrationally. He was given a warning and told to leave campus property, which he did.

Waise then went to a women’s health center in the 200 block of Bonnie Brae Street. According to authorities, he was insisting that people inside take a copy of the Koran from him — “or die.” He was gone before police could arrive at the scene, but soon after was spotted at the Denton County Courthouse.

Witnesses said that Waise was wearing a turban and yelling in Arabic. He tried to enter the courthouse, but was stopped at the security checkpoint. Officers said that Waise claimed to be “the king” and wanted to give a copy of the Koran to a judge inside. He was escorted out of the building by Denton County Sheriff’s Office deputies.

However, while being removed from the building, an agitated Waise allegedly told deputies “I’m imposing the death penalty” and “anybody who touches me is going to bleed.” The Denton Police Department obtained an arrest warrant for Waise due to these terroristic threats, and took him into custody.

Nobody at any location was injured during these incidents.

Tough to say, but from what I read my guess would be pysch issue more than terrorist douche.

The psych eval is also a decent way to hold this guy for an extra period in addition to getting a professional look into his mental makeup.
