[TexasTowelie]

A pistol-packing Pa. mayor is accused of pointing a loaded gun at a 15-year-old boy and later, three teen girls, ordering them to put down their phones in a park.

As KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh reports, it happened in Derry Borough, Westmoreland County, where Mayor Kevin Gross, 38, found himself in handcuffs after his alleged pistol-wielding in the park.

Pa. State police tell KDKA Gross allegedly pointed a loaded revolver at a 15-year-old boy, ordering him to the ground at the park on Broad Street on Sunday night.

He is also accused of pointing the gun at three teenage girls and ordering them to put down their phones.

The incidents happened after Gross’s son allegedly had a scuffle with some other teens and got a scratch on his arm, KDKA writes.
