Northwestern Employee Charged With Threatening Another With Knife

A Northwestern University housing employee is accused of threatening another employee with a knife during an argument.

According to the Chicago Tribune, the argument began in Sargent Hall when a worker from Sodexo, which provides dining hall services at the university, was refused to be let in a locked door by Maurice Henry, 45, the housing employee.

“When the other employee finally entered the building, he confronted Henry and demanded to know why Henry would not open the door for him,” according to the Tribune. “They said an argument ensued, and Henry threatened the other employee with a knife.”

Henry was charged with aggravated assault from the incident.

University officials would not confirm if Henry is still employed there.
