ROCHESTER, Minn. (KTTC) -- Two out of town men have quite the card game over the weekend, leaving one of them in jail.

According to the Rochester Police Department, 50-year-old Milton Thomas of St. Petersburg, Florida was playing cards with a couple of men at the Rochester Inn.

He got into an argument with one of the other men about the game, took a knife from his pocket and threatened one of the men.

After a short confrontation, Thomas went back to his hotel room where he was arrested shortly after.

No one was hurt in the altercation.
