‘Waterboy’ Star Peter Dante Arrested, Allegedly Threatened to Kill Neighbor

Peter Dante — you’ve seen him play goofy roles in just about every Adam Sandler film — is in serious trouble after cops say he threatened to kill his neighbor over construction noise.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … cops showed up at Peter’s L.A. area home Wednesday morning after he allegedly went berserk on a neighbor. Cops say Peter was upset about loud noise from construction work at a neighbor’s house.

Apparently, it set Peter off … cops say the actor ended up confronting his neighbor in a big way. Officers say they were told the confrontation escalated to the point Peter threatened to kill the neighbor and harm his wife and their kids.

Our sources say after talking to everyone involved … cops arrested Peter for making felony criminal threats. He was taken into custody but posted bail and was released.

It’s not the first time Peter’s been accused of making threats. As we reported … he was arrested back in 2013 and thrown out of an L.A. hotel after allegedly making violent threats and using racial slurs.
