Kirk shooting witness: "very elderly gentleman with white hair" "screaming about his rights" [View all]

“We heard a big loud shot, I saw a bunch of blood come out of Charlie, I saw his body kind of kick back and go limp, and everybody dropped to the ground,” Hickens said.

After a few moments, people started running out of the outdoor pavilion area, knocking over barricades. Hickens said he slowed down once he realized there were no more shots being fired and he felt safe.

"I kind of turned around and all of a sudden I saw officers walking with this very elderly gentleman with white hair," Hickens said. "They had him arrested, they had him on his knees and he was screaming about his rights and all that stuff. They cuffed him and put him away."
