Shots illegally fired by conceal carry permit holder during fight at Pennsylvania Walmart

Occurred November 16, 2014.


Two men, Joseff Baskerville, 23, and another man known as T.B. got into a fight in the parking lot of a Walmart store in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.  That's when Baskerville pulled out a Glock handgun and fired into the air.  T.B. fled, and Baskerville was arrested.

From an article:
Police responded to a report of two males shooting at each other in the parking lot of the Walmart Supercenter in the Wilkes-Barre Township Marketplace on Highland Park Boulevard and detained two men near the Cracker Barrel restaurant.

One male, identified as Joseff Baskerville, 23, of Wilkes-Barre, reported that a male known to him only as T.B. had struck him in the head with his fist, police said.

Baskerville at that time drew his weapon, a Glock 27 .40-caliber pistol, and fired rounds into the air as a warning; the unknown male fled the area, police said.

Police recovered the weapon from Baskerville and determined that he possessed a valid concealed weapons permit issued through the Luzerne County Sheriff’s Department. ...
Police determined that Rivers had an outstanding arrest warrant from the state of New Jersey. He was taken into custody, charged as a fugitive from justice and was arraigned before District Judge Martin Kane, and jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $25,000 bail.
