PHOENIX — A warrant was reportedly issued Monday for a man accused of threatening Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

According to ABC15.com, the suspect, who lives in California, threatened Arpaio in April.

MCSO spokesman Deputy Joaquin Enriquez said Caesar David Nunez, 22, of Culver City, threatened Arpaio in April saying “I want to personally blow Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s head off.”

Nunez said he made the comment because he disagrees with Arpaio’s stance on illegal immigration.
