CLARION TWP., Pa. (EYT) — A Clarion man is facing charges after he allegedly stood outside a couple’s home and yelled profanity, a racial slur, and a death threat through their window.

Court documents indicate the Clarion-based State Police filed criminal charges against 33-year-old Kristopher Cody Patrick, of Clarion, on September 18.

According to a criminal complaint, around 1:43 a.m. on Friday, September 13, Trooper Knight, of the Clarion-based State Police, was dispatched to a location on Fraternity Drive in Clarion Township for a report of a known male causing a disturbance outside of a known victim’s residence.
