A fight soon broke out in the same business parking lot that involved the juvenile in possession of the handgun, which turned out to be a BB gun, and officers were able to detain him.

The same juvenile that was in possession of the BB gun is the juvenile who was seen by another officer kicking an individual who was on the ground during the fight.
