From the post: "The initial call was made for a man sleeping in front of a door on the second floor of a building. An officer gently woke the man, who was reportedly remembered from previous incidents and learned there was a warrant out for his arrest.
It was reported that the man reached into his coat pocket and whipped out a gun with the officer standing a few feet away. The officer quickly grabbed the gun and the man was placed in cuffs as backup was called. "
