Norwood man arrested for having a knife at Norwood View

Today’s Enquirer reports that Norwood resident Guy Tenkotte, 55, was arrested yesterday after being accused of watching children at Norwood View Elementary and remaining on school grounds after a staff member asked him to leave. Norwood police called to the scene found an 11-inch knife on him when they escorted him off school property. Tenkotte is charged with criminal trespass and illegal possession of a deadly firearm within a school safety zone.

It sounds as though the Norwood View staff and the NPD were quick to respond to this man’s suspicious behavior. We’re certainly thankful the incident ended without harm to any of the children, the employees, and the police officers.
