Man with gun causes scare during children’s baseball game

FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. —
Parents at a Forysth County park abruptly stopped a children's baseball game after growing suspicions of the behavior of a man carrying a gun in a waist holster Tuesday night.

"He's just walking around [saying] 'See my gun? Look, I got a gun and there's nothing you can do about it.' He knew he was frightening people. He knew exactly what he was doing," said parent Karen Rabb.

Rabb told Channel 2’s Tom Regan the parents grew so alarmed that they brought the game to a halt when the man declined a request that he leave a parking lot overlooking the baseball field.

“He scared people to the point where we stopped the game, took the kids out of the dugout and behind the dugout, and kind of hunkered down,” Rabb said.

----------------------

Rabb's 6-year-old son Ethan was playing at the time and later expressed concern to his mother.

"When I was reading my son's story last night, he turned to me and said 'Mommy, did that man want to kill me?'" said Rabb

Gunstalking children???? A bit much don't you think. clffrdjk Apr 2014 #4

Gunstalking children may be perfectly legal in some places, but there is plenty wrong with it. stone space Apr 2014 #6

Ok if you are going to continue to use that clffrdjk Apr 2014 #7

Yes, must be the parents fault. Starboard Tack Apr 2014 #11

Absolutely! How else is the general population going to know? Starboard Tack Apr 2014 #61

I have been entirely honest. clffrdjk Apr 2014 #62

No, carrying a gun for no good reason is sick. Admitting that would be honest. Starboard Tack Apr 2014 #63
