DOWAGIAC (WKZO AM/FM) — A Decatur man is in custody after he held a victim at gunpoint at a bar and grill in Van Buren County.
26-year-old Alanzo Gasca was at the Lakeview Inn in Sister Lakes around 1:40 a.m. Friday reportedly “acting out of control.”
When a staff member asked him to leave, he refused, and the worker had to forcibly remove Gasca from the building.
That’s when Gasca went back to his car, retrieved a loaded semi-automatic rifle, and pointed it at the staff member on the patio of the establishment.
The victim and bystanders removed the gun from Gasca’s possession and held him down until officers arrived.
Gasca is charged with felonious assault with a dangerous weapon, possession of a firearm while under the influence, carrying a weapon with unlawful Intent, and a disorderly person charge.
His bond is set at $50,000.
