Alameda Police Department (APD) has announced the arrest of Jonathon Gee, 33, as the man who allegedly threatened protesters on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. According to witnesses, Gee was holding what appeared to be a long gun and was threatening the protesters.

When questioned by police, Gee identified the weapon he was holding as an “Airsoft” gun. He told police that he no longer had the long gun.

When APD searched Gee’s home they found several pieces of evidence that connected Gee to the incident.

These included the distinctive clothing that Gee was wearing. APD referred the case to the City of Alameda’s Prosecutor’s office. On Feb. 12, that office announced that it was filing a two-count criminal complaint against Gee.

The complaint alleges that Gee disturbed the peace in a manner likely to provoke a violent reaction and unlawfully altered an imitation firearm.
