The Hennepin County Attorney’s Office says they will not charge the officer with making a terroristic threat, which is a felony, because the case did not meet the requirements.
The officer will also not be charged by the county for the physical altercation because it would constitute a misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor, which would fall under the jurisdiction of Richfield’s city attorney.
