A husband and wife who were caught on video brandishing firearms at protesters outside their St. Louis home have turned their rifle over to police after a search warrant was executed.
In a June statement, police described the McCloskey's as"victims" of trespassing and fourth-degree assault.
Demonstrators were in the neighborhood to protest against police brutality and Mayor Lyda Krewson, a West Central End resident who had. Krewson has since apologized. "I kind of turned around to take some pictures of people coming through the gate, then I turned back around and by then he had his long gun in his hand," he said."And the woman came out with a pistol and started pointing it with her finger on the trigger at everybody."
