ABILENE — Abilene police arrested two men from Bakersfield, Ca, Wednesday for openly carrying a firearm in the Whataburger restaurant on South 1st street in Abilene.
According to an arrest report, 56-year-old Rande Scott Fighmy and 23-year-old Trey Best were arrested after police saw them with pistols holstered on their hips in the restaurant.
Fighmy stated that he thought Texas was an open carry state.
The pair were arrested for a Class A-Misdemeanor Unlawful Carrying of a Weapon and were transported to the Taylor County Jail.
Wanna bet they checked in some podunk forum and were told by an “expert” that it was OK to OC?
