32-year-old Kirhee Young had an incident with Jennifer Lackey at his Rio Vista Drive residence on the afternoon of February 16th. Lackey spoke with the officers when they arrived, advising them that she and Young argued over racial remarks he made on the phone with his brother. Then, Lackey told Young since he “does not like white people,” she would leave and started packing her things to leave the residence. Lackey said that it was at this time that Young walked into the bedroom, pointing a firearm at her, and told her to “Try him,” so she walked outside and called the authorities. Officers spoke with Young, who said he had a firearm but did not point it at her. Then, Young agreed to let them enter the residence and showed them where the gun was. Young was taken into custody for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
