Man Pointed Gun at South Indiana Government Center

JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind. (AP) – Police have arrested a man who pointed a long gun from a truck at a southern Indiana courthouse.
 
The News and Tribune and WDRB-TV report officers from the Clark County Sheriff's Department and the Jeffersonville Police Department responded to the incident Tuesday afternoon and surrounded the man parked in a black pickup truck in a lot across from the Clark County Government Building.
 
No shots were fired and no one was hurt.
