Update 3:32 p.m.: After airing a story on Friday evening regarding an arrest, Target Masters, in Columbia, contacted ABC 17 News and said they had surveillance video of what they claim is the same man pointing a gun in the direction of an employee.

In the video below, you can see general manager Joe Gilbert on the right with a customer.

“We didn’t know what his intent was,” said Gilbert.

Gilbert said he told the man to put his gun down and according to him, the man complied and said he just wanted a holster for his gun.

ABC 17 News showed the video to Detective Tom O’Sullivan, of the Boone County Sheriff’s Department, who said people have to be responsible gun owners.

“You don’t handle a firearm like it’s a TV remote control or a set of car keys and you have to be aware that any action you may take with a firearm has consequences,” said O’Sullivan.
