Knife Threat: Juan Hernandez, 32, was arrested Friday morning after he allegedly threatened another man with kitchen knives. The 38-year-old victim told police he awoke inside a Roebling Avenue home and found Hernandez standing over him with a knife in his hand. The victim’s roommate tackled the suspect, according to police who say Hernandez then fled the home with the knife. Police were dispatched to the home around 8:25 a.m., and a detective in the area saw Hernandez walking with a knife. When police stopped Hernandez, they allegedly found him in possession of two 12-inch kitchen knives. Hernandez is charged with aggravated assault, weapons possession and terroristi­c threats.
