FARGO – A former Fargo auto technician is accused of threatening to kill the entire “quick lane” crew and burn down the Luther Family Ford car dealership here.
Documents filed Friday in Cass County District Court say Fargo police were called on a threat report at 6:41 p.m. Thursday to Luther Family Ford, 3302 36th St. S.
Employees told a Fargo police officer that Gary Sanford Bush, 24, made some threats.
Bush was fired earlier that morning for poor work performance, the Luther Ford employees told police, and by 4:30, Bush had called a Quick Lane employee and told her another Quick Lane crew member got him fired and Bush wanted to snap his neck.
Bush also told her he was sharpening his knives and that Luther Ford would need to hire an all-new Quick Lane crew soon.

Bush told the employee that he killed five people during his military service, and planned to double that count.
Court documents say Bush was arrested at his home. He was intoxicated, court documents say, and denied making the phone call, or any threats. Bush was charged with one count of terrorizing, a Class C felony.
