(KGNS) - A Laredo man is accused of threatening a Laredo police officer during a traffic stop near the 2200 block of South U.S. 83, according to police.

Police said the stop happened just before midnight when a sergeant pulled over 43-year-old Diego Pequeno for a traffic violation.

Officers said Pequeno refused to get out of his truck and later threatened the sergeant."Allegedly made some sort of comment telling the officer that he would see him 'on the street.' There was probable cause to consider this an offense, and Mr. Pequeno was then arrested and charged with resisting arrest and retaliation, which is a third-degree felony," said Cesar Rodriguez, LPD.
