Chief Michael P. Ward of the City of Bradford Police Department reports the following information regarding an incident that occurred on December 15, 2025.

At approximately 1443 hours, City of Bradford Police responded to Bradford Regional Medical Center’s Emergency Room (BRMC ER) after McKean County 911 reported a call from an individual,  identified as Jordan M. Kornacki, who threatened to become violent with BRMC staff. Officers arrived on the scene and attempted to de-escalate the situation, but the individual continued to threaten harm to BRMC staff and officers, as well as threaten to cause property damage.

Despite repeated warnings, the individual failed to comply, and subsequently requested to be taken to jail. During the arrest, the individual made further threats to stab BRMC staff in the neck or face and/or punch them in the face. A search of the individual following the arrest resulted in the seizure of a small amount of Cocaine (Schedule II), THC Marijuana (Schedule I), and related paraphernalia.

The individual was charged accordingly and arraigned by Magistrate William Todd, with bail set at $15,000 cash. Preliminary hearings are scheduled in the matter. The City of Bradford Police Department takes incidents of this nature very seriously and will not tolerate crimes of violence or threats of violence. Medical staff acting in good faith in the care of others should be able to perform their duties without fear of harm. All persons are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
