A Sioux Falls man has been arrested after police say he threatened people with a gun during a birthday party.

Brandon Thomas Sprenger, 28, was charged with three counts of aggravated assault and driving while intoxicated, Sioux Falls police spokesman Sam Clemens said during his daily police briefing with media Monday.

Officers responded to an apartment shortly before 11 p.m. Sunday in the 1500 block of East Bennett Street, near the North Wayland Avenue intersection.

"There were some people who were gathering for a birthday party," Clemens said. "One of the guys was intoxicated and threatened some people with a gun. He ended up leaving before police got there."

Officers arrested him later during a traffic stop, Clemens said.
