Man heading home from Disney World accused of pushing pregnant woman, threatening to kill witness
FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. - A South Carolina man on his way back home from a trip to Walt Disney World in Florida was arrested after deputies said he pushed a pregnant family member and then threatened to kill a witness after an argument escalated at a fast food restaurant in Palm Coast.
Harvey Thomas, 45, was arrested on Sunday, Dec. 18. He is being held on $20,000 bond.
According to the Flagler County Sheriff's Office, Thomas and a family member who is pregnant had left Disney and were at the McDonald's at 6030 State Road 100 East when they got into an argument in the parking lot. At some point during the argument, deputies said Thomas pushed the family member "multiple times, prompting a witness to confront Thomas about it."
That's when Thomas allegedly pointed a revolver at the witness and threatened to kill her, the sheriff's office said.
