Overview
- Home footage in the Arden-Arcade area, recorded Thursday night, showed a man making stabbing motions with a knife on a porch as several neighbors called 911 and no injuries were reported.
- Deputies identified the man as Brian Mattson, 56, and arrested him Saturday on a misdemeanor trespassing charge before releasing him about 90 minutes later when a probation hold was declined.
- Neighbors then reported new trespassing near Fair Oaks Boulevard and San Lucas Way later Saturday, and deputies arrested Mattson again on a probation violation.
- Jail records list a felony probation violation with no bail eligibility, and Mattson is expected in court Tuesday, according to CBS Sacramento.
- The sheriff’s office asked residents to report any related encounters and said state law treats the conduct as a nonviolent offense, which limits immediate detention and may steer the case toward custody or services.
