University police were called Wednesday to the University Physicians Family Practice Clinic, 1450 N. Cherry Ave., after a miscommunication led to an argument.
At 3:30 p.m. police arrived and met with a female employee. The employee told police a Tucson man had arrived late for his appointment and had been told he could not be seen that day.
The man became upset, the woman told police, and began "using profanity," according to police reports. The man told the nurses to get the doctor, the employee told police, and told the nurses he would "kick their ass," police reports stated.
The man was in an examination room when police arrived. He said he had a 2:30 p.m. appointment and had been on time for it. When he arrived, the man told police, he was told his appointment was at 2 p.m. and he could not be seen.
The man told police he had been upset, but denied making threats. The man said he had four stitches that needed removing and did not care who removed them.
The stitches were removed, and the man was escorted from the building. The employee told police the man was welcome to come back to the clinic if he could remain calm.

A man was cited for driving under the influence Thursday after university police saw him drive his car on the wrong side of the road.
Police were stopped on North Campbell Avenue and East Speedway Boulevard at 11:04 p.m. when they saw a beige Oldsmobile Cutlass going east on Speedway turn north onto Campbell. The car turned onto the southbound lanes of the divided roadway.
The car, driven by Nicholas D. De La Rosa Fox, 43, of the 2000 block of North Actos, made a U-turn and began traveling in the correct direction. Police stopped the car at Campbell and Speedway.
According to police reports, De La Rosa Fox had "red and watery eyes," and smelled of alcohol. When police asked De La Rosa Fox to step out of his car, he fell against the front door, reports stated.
De La Rosa Fox told police he had had three beers at a local bar. After performing field sobriety tests, he was taken to police headquarters.
Two intoxilyzer tests showed De La Rosa Fox had a blood alcohol content of .146 and .135.
De La Rosa Fox was cited for DUI impaired in the slightest degree and DUI with a blood alcohol content greater than .10. He was released.

A student with a keg was stopped Friday outside La Paz Residence Hall, 602 N. Highland Ave.
At 2:25 a.m. university police saw a 19-year-old La Paz resident take a keg from his Jeep and put it underneath a table on the east side of the hall.
Police approached the student and asked him if he had any identification. He said he did not. Police then asked him why he was driving without a license, and he admitted he had his license in his pocket, police reports stated.
The student said he had found the keg in the front seat of his Jeep and he did not want it.
He told police "We tried to drink from it, but the pump didn't work," but he did not elaborate on who "we" were.
Police told the student they would place him in the Dean of Students' diversion program rather than cite him for minor in possession. The student said he had already been through the program once. If the student is not accepted into the program, he will be cited.
