Police have arrested 63-year-old Gerald Knorr following an incident in a grocery store in Fargo, North Dakota, reported The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead.
Local resident Amina Haji tells the newspaper that her interactions with Knorr immediately went downhill upon encountering him at the grocery store this Tuesday when he was with his dog.
According to Haji, the dog began barking at her sister, who is afraid of dogs, and the man began threatening her.
"The N-word was flying around, calling me all sorts of, like, 'Oh, you're terrorists, you don't belong here, get out of my store, we don't want you here,'" said Haji. "And then that's when he started to say, 'I'll have my dog bite your face off.'"
According to the report, Knorr then went around threatening other people in the store, and Aldi employees summoned the police. Both he and his dog have been arrested, and are being held at the Cass County Jail and the Fargo Pound, respectively.

"This was Knorr and his dog's second brush with police following a Sunday altercation with another family and their dog named Blue in a parking lot near the 13th Avenue Walmart," said the report. "Jessie Davis, Blue's owner, said after both dogs met each other, 'he just started stabbing our dog,' Davis said. Blue died as a result."
Knorr, who was seen wearing a "White Lives Matter More" shirt immediately after the stabbing, claimed that he stabbed Blue, who was off leash at the time, in self-defense, which an eyewitness supported.
