The Springfield Police Department in Springfield, Missouri have arrested one man after they responded to a report of a man having weapons and ammunition at a Walmart in the community.

The man who appeared to be in his twenties was wearing body armour. He’s also reported to have had loaded weapons and over 100 rounds of ammunition.

Prior to police arriving, a store manager pulled a fire alarm. The male with the weapons and ammunition tried to leave through an emergency exit, but a firefighter held him at gunpoint until the police arrived.

Police are now investigating and we’ll have more as additional information becomes available.
