DAUPHIN COUNTY — A 31-year-old Middletown man is facing charges after allegedly threatening to cut off a boy’s arm and then attacking the child’s mother when she confronted him about it, according to Middletown Police.
Jason Andrew Staub, of the 200 block of N. Union St., is charged with terroristic threats, simple assault, and harassment in the incident, which occurred on June 17, police say.
