Suspicious incident. After being told to put on a face mask while inside a local fast food restaurant, a man lifted his shirt and showed off the firearm in his waistband to the employee, according to a police report.
The man cursed at the employee and gave her the middle finger as he left and drove off. Additionally, on his way out, the man ripped a sign off the front door asking patrons to wear masks. The employee said the firearm was never touched and there were no threats of any harm, and that she wasn't afraid for her safety at the time.
Police reviewed videos of the incident and determined that the man didn't show the firearm intentionally, as it looks like he was fixing his shirt before he realized the employee was asking him to wear a mask.
