A man has been arrested for terrorizing a Petro station in Fargo.

Just after 6pm, clerks say a white male entered the Petro Stopping Center on 45th Street and 19th Avenue in Fargo.

After asking for cash, he continued to tell the store clerks that he might have explosives.

He then left the station.

Fargo Police and the Highway Patrol responded.

The man returned to the station where he was arrested.

There were no explosives to be found.

“He asked for money and there was no threat made about the money but he did make some mention about explosives which obviously alarmed the clerks,” says Sgt. Chris Helmick, Fargo Police Department

He is currently being held at the Cass County Jail.
