(CUSHING, OK) — Terrifying moments were caught on camera in Oklahoma.

Police say a man barged into a business and began swinging a knife at employees and even threatening to kill people.

“He came in screaming and yelling that we was going to kill us all,” says  Giakob Beasley, president of Beasley Technology.

Giakob says the man, Joel Walker, had been in the store earlier that day making threats to employees.  An hour and a half later he came back.

Frightened customers inside the store were forced to band together to fend off the violent intruder with one employee being thrown to the floor.

The employees were able to get him outside, where he was arrested minutes later.

“Lucky to have the guys that we had there around us,” says Beasley.
