MAKES THREATS TO KILL
HIS DAUGHTER AND MOTHER
Fred Robert Ii Arrested and Complaint
VIII BE Sworn To This
Morning.

Miss Robert, 1917 Broderick street.
called upon Captain Burnett at police
headquarters yesterday afternoon and
made a complaint that her father, Fred
Robert, had threatened to kill her and
her grandmother, who lives with them.
She said her father had been drinking
heavily and all night he had been NUT
tering threaths against them.
Detective Gorham of the Golden Gate
Park station happened to be at head
quarters and Captain Burnett instructed
him to accompany Miss Robert to hor
home. When they reached there Ro-
bert, in the presence of Gorham. re-
peated his threat to kill his daughter
and her grandmother and the detec-
tive promptly placed him under arrest.
He was taken to the park station and
later removed to the City Prison
Miss Robert said she was afraid that
her father would carry out his threat
and at the suggestion of Gorham she
promised to swear to complaint this
morning charging him with threats
against life.
