As university police approached the male driver, the officer noticed a handgun magazine next to his right thigh, reports stated.

University police told the male to place his hands on the steering wheel but he would not comply. The officer then backed to the patrol car and drew his handgun and issued several commands before the male eventually put both hands out the driver's window, using his middle fingers to flip off the officer, reports stated.

The 21-year-old man then said, "can you see my hands now, bitch?"

The man continued to be disorderly but was finally detained in the officer's car for safety.

The man told university police he was at the shooting and his friend had been shot. He said he did not know if his friend was one of the shooters.

Police reported the gun smelled like it had been fired recently and had three remaining bullets in the chamber.

University police turned the man and gun over to TPD and left the scene.
