The Herald's Natalie McNeal has been following the story of Miramar Commissioner Fitzroy Salesman's recent arrest on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
In today's latest development, we learn more about what happened in a local Winn-Dixie store on Thanksgiving Eve that caused Salesman (left) to pull a semiautomatic handgun on a fellow customer.
According to a deposition from witness Lazavius Hudson, he and the commissioner got into a tiff over how many items Hudson had in the checkout line. When Hudson challenged Salesman to "step outside" with him, Hudson says Salesman pulled out a gun and pushed him with it.
Salesman, who has a Feb. 26 court hearing, has said he pulled the gun because he felt threatened in the store.
