A Laurens man is jailed for allegedly threatening people with a gun at the Storm Lake Walmart on Wednesday.
Police allege 21-year-old Christian Eberle pointed a handgun with a green laser attached at two different people as they were leaving the store multiple times following a verbal altercation inside of the store. Eberle then fled in a car.
The car was located in Albert City. Police seized a handgun from the car along about 80 rounds of ammo. Eberle was charged with four counts of assault while displaying a dangerous weapon and one count of carrying weapons, all aggravated misdemeanors.
Police allege the initial argument was connected to illegal drugs.
