Arrest Made After Knife Incident At Grocery Store In Windham

A woman then approached bystanders and said she and Clemmons would leave in her vehicle and a store manager said they would not be able to return, according to an incident report. Clemmons is then accused of exiting the vehicle, taking the knife back out of his pocket, and pointing it at the store manager while saying he intended to return to the store.

Troopers located a folding knife and a container of pepper spray on Clemmons after they arrived.
Clemmons was charged with:
