According to the New York Post, Andre Johnson, 25 pulled out a knife and began making threatening statements about Michael Strahan during an argument with security at the ABC’s studios in Times Square on Tuesday morning. Johnson was later arrested. Strahan was never in any danger and learned of the incident later in the day.
