GPD take down a man making threats - Gainesville police say a man walked into their police station Thursday night, making threats to kill police officers and the chief of police. 

The whole incident was caught on surveillance video. 

Officers say he was armed with a steak knife and a pair of scissors.

Police say Joseph Roberts went into the lobby and was complaining about a task force that was monitoring his electronic devices.
