Zachary King says he was walking to his car when police noticed his gun in his waist band. He claims he told police he had a permit to carry, but they still attacked him.
King suffered a concussion after five officers beat him on Father’s Day night. King says video of the assault was taken by a bystander. He says it all started when police noticed a bulge near his waist band.
“I have my conceal and carry, and it’s my gun. And soon as I said that he grabbed me by my neck, slammed me against the wall, snatched my gun out the holster, started waving it in the air saying ‘gun, gun, gun,’” said King.”
I couldn't figure out the whole story but I don't think King was ultimately charged with anything, so I guess he was not drunk at the time.Minnesota has no laws stating it is illegal to carry a pistol into an establishment that sells alcohol, however it is a crime to carry a concealed handgun when under the influence of alcohol. It is not known whether King had been drinking.
