FLORHAM PARK New Jersey — A Catholic priest at the Florham Park-based Vocationist Fathers Retreat and Conference Center has been accused of threatening to kill a fellow priest and attacking him with a metal crucifix.

Okwuosa also alleged Hreno stabbed him in the arm with the crucifix, though Hreno has not been charged with assault, CBS New York reports, citing a criminal complaint.
The dispute started over the use of a vehicle, police said.
After the incident, Hreno was charged with making terroristic threats, and released on his own recognizance by Municipal Court Judge Gary Troxell with a condition of not having any contact with Okwuosa, police said.
