The search turned up one .40-caliber bullet casing on the floorboard in the back seat on the driver’s side. Officers also found a Glock 23 pistol with an extended magazine of .40-caliber ammunition in the back seat on the driver’s side. The gun was determined to belong to Patterson.
During interviews with the witnesses, according to the arrest warrant, it was determined that “Patterson intentionally pointed a firearm” at Coleman, who was subsequently shot by Patterson.
