A Fargo man is accused of sexually assaulting

a woman, punching a man who was helping her, and threatening to

kill both of them with a knife.

28-year-old Dustin Louis Vaughn made his first court appearance Thursday on felony

charges of gross sexual imposition and terrorizing. He also is

charged with misdemeanor charges of simple assault and criminal

mischief for allegedly slashing the woman's tires.

The male victim told police he was helping the woman get

property out of her apartment Tuesday when Vaughn arrived and

punched him. The man was able to get away.

The woman reported that Vaughn then assaulted her. Vaughn later

allegedly approached the woman and the male victim and threatened

to kill them.
