Multiple officers responded to the area making contact with the primary individual involved, contrary to some other social media posts, the individual never fled the scene nor was on the run and sounds like he was cooperative. The truck with the firearm returned to the scene.
Officers cleared the scene with a disposition of 6 (see report) and changing the call type to disorderly contact.
Further comments on our GHScanner Facebook Page Alert post said that the individual involved has been on on going problem person with a Honda that has a 2 step exhaust causing what sounds like gun fire, backfire and that an argument had ensued over his vehicle and the noise that he has been creating. While nothing official from APD - it sounds like from comments and those stating that live nearby, no shots were fired.
