HOMESTEAD, Fla. – A 33-year-old man was arrested Tuesday after he went to the Homestead school where his wife, who is a police officer, is assigned to and threatened to kill her, authorities said.
According to his arrest report, Stephano Alfred and the victim have been married for 11 years and have two children in common.

Homestead police said the officer left her marital home on Oct. 12 after a verbal altercation with her husband, and she and their children have been staying at a local hotel.
According to the report, Alfred pulled his car into the school parking lot next to the victim’s marked police vehicle on Tuesday morning and blocked her from exiting her car.
Police said he then began yelling and cursing at his wife, leading her to pull forward so she could exit her car.
As she was exiting the vehicle, Alfred said to her, “F*** you, b****. You need to come home. I’ll kill you. If you don’t come home, I’ll show you,” the report stated.
According to the report, Alfred left the area but returned a short time later and began to walk toward the school as he threatened to demolish the victim’s home and “tell the whole department everything about you.”
Police said the victim told the security monitor to lock the gate so he couldn’t get in, and he fled the area before additional officers arrived.
According to police, the incident was witnessed by a school security monitor and a parent.
The arrest report states that Alfred had been arrested twice before for domestic violence against the victim.
There was also a domestic violence injunction in place at one time, but it has since been removed.
Alfred was arrested later in the day on charges of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer, making extortion threats and threatening to cause death or bodily harm to a law enforcement officer.
As of Wednesday afternoon, he was being held at the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center on an $8,500 bond.
