A 27-year-old Alachua County man was arrested on felony charges after witnesses say he threatened seven people, including four children, with a firearm during a Friday night gathering at Lake Alto near Waldo. According to deputies, Teddy Stanze became agitated after a woman left the party, tried to board a pontoon boat after being asked to leave, and then had a child retrieve a gun from his vehicle before pointing it at the group. Stanze is currently held on a $120,000 bond.
