A San­ta Cruz man has been ar­rest­ed af­ter he pulled a firearm and threat­ened T&TEC work­ers.

Re­ports say the crew was in La Ca­noe, San­ta Cruz on a rou­tine job when they wit­nessed an il­le­gal elec­tric­i­ty con­nec­tion.

They stopped and dis­con­nect­ed it.

How­ev­er, the own­er of the home came out and al­leged­ly point­ed a gun at the T&TEC work­ers and or­dered them to re­store his il­le­gal con­nec­tion.

They con­tact­ed the po­lice and up­on ar­rival the man was ar­rest­ed.

Cor­po­rate Com­mu­ni­ca­tions Man­ag­er at T&TEC Annabelle Bras­nell told Guardian Me­dia that the work­ers will re­ceive coun­selling.
