| August Busch IV |
Just
think International news coming out of Key West, Florida. August A. Busch IV, who was questioned by
police Thursday after he pulled a gun during a confrontation at the Bank of
America Office in Key West, FL. No arrests were made, no charges were filed
and no one was injured, according to the Key West Police Department report. The incident occurred about 11 a.m. on the
lot of a Bank of America branch, when a man in a pickup truck became angry with
Busch for parking in a manner that blocked access to a bank door.
A witness to the confrontation said that
while Busch walked to an ATM, the pickup driver got out of his vehicle, became
confrontational by yelling at Busch and walked toward him. The witness said Busch pulled out a handgun,
but kept it pointed at the ground. Busch, 52, was cooperative with the responding
officer, he readily admitted to having a gun and then presented the officer
with a valid driver's license and concealed-carry permit. The former head of Anheuser-Busch Cos., who
ran the brewing giant from 2006 until it was bought out two years later, has
had several high-profile dealings with police in his high-profile past.
Fortunately, this incident was nipped in
the bud before it got out of hand.
Cooler heads finally prevailed before the incident turned violent.
