A video circulating social media shows a woman pulling out a handgun at Westfield Mall in Vancouver, Washington, during a dispute with another family. According to The Columbian, police later found that the gun was not loaded.
This woman pulled her gun in a Lids hat store. The Kids walked in-front of the gun. \n\nI know, let\u2019s make it even easier for these people to get and carry guns. Clearly they are responsible individuals. \n\nI hate it here right now. pic.twitter.com/UkpNhnzHZT— Ryan Shead (@Ryan Shead) 1623455971
Police said the woman and the family have a history of fighting, and the woman said she pulled the gun to protect her daughters.
The Columbian reports that the Vancouver police "referred a charge of displaying a firearm against the woman with the gun to the Vancouver City Attorney's Office."
