Falls police were called to the Hyde Park Ice Rink about 5:45 p.m. Saturday after a retired member of the Niagara Falls Police Department reported being threatened following a youth hockey game.
The victim said he was leaving the rink with members of his family when Kenneth W. Wigdorski, 43, 1708 Colvin Blvd., Town of Tonawanda, approached him with his son and tried to instigate a fight. The report said Wigdorski was angry over a comment he believed the victim made to his son.
The victim, a coach of a youth hockey team, said when he refused to fight, Wigdorski, as well as seven or eight players and a team manager began to taunt him as his family stood by.
When the victim/ex-cop said he was calling police, Wigdorski replied, “I’ll wait here. But hurry, I don’t want to be late for dinner.”
He was eventually charged with third-degree menacing.
As the victim was filling out a police report, he told officers his son called him to say he had just received a threatening call. The son was urged to contact the Niagara County Sheriff’s Department.
