Troopers were called to the RnR Grill N Bar on Sussex Highway in Laurel on Friday night for a report of a person shooting a gun and found Aaron Givens, 38, near a shed behind the business. Givens was asked to leave the bar after banging a flashlight on tables and as he was being escorted outside, police say Givens pointed a gun at two employees and two patrons.

The employees and patrons ran back inside before Givens fired in their direction. No one was struck, but one employee hurt his knee.

Givens was charged with reckless endangering and weapons offenses.
