Fulton man arrested after brandishing gun in bar fight

Dusten C. Scott, Fulton, was arrested early Saturday morning after allegedly pointing a gun at another individual following a fight in front of the Post Office Bar and Grill.

Shortly after midnight Jan. 12, a Fulton Police Department Officer noticed a fight in progress in front of the bar. As the officer exited the car and approached, he was told that a white male, later identified to be Scott, had pulled out a gun and brandished it.

Scott fled when approached by the officer, who pursued on foot and caught Scott. A firearm was found on the ground near Scott, who was charged with unlawful use of a weapon.
