A tense situation unfolded at Acrisure Stadium yesterday when a kitchen worker allegedly threatened colleagues with a knife, prompting a swift response from the Pittsburgh Police. The confrontation, which occurred just hours before a scheduled game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals, led to the arrest of 27-year-old Ason Brown, who is now facing multiple charges, including terroristic threats and assault, according to WPXI.

Court documents revealed that alongside the threat of violence, Brown is accused of dumping food out of boxes and attempting to throw hot grease onto his coworkers; they managed to disarm him and restrain him on the floor—only for Brown to resist arrest before police took him into custody and transported him to the Allegheny County Jail.

Amid the chaos, Acrisure Stadium's spokesperson, Cecelia Cagni, extended gratitude toward the police for their handling of the incident, declaring, "We are aware of an incident that occurred earlier today at Acrisure Stadium. We are thankful the City of Pittsburgh Police handled the situation properly and that there were no injuries reported," an assertion drawn from the station's coverage. This sentiment was mirrored in a similar statement reported by WTAE.
