63-year-old Andre Ingram was booked on the summons of assault on April 26th. On February 24th, Daniel Boston called the police to his unit at The Warrick Apartments regarding issues with his neighbor, Ingram. When they arrived, he stated that Ingram’s dog and his music were too loud, even after he had spoken with management about it. While he was outside, he saw Ingram walking his dog in the parking lot and tried to initiate a conversation with him to address the noise, during which Ingram started to “go off,” sparking an argument where he lifted his shirt, displaying a black firearm in a holster on his right hip. He then grabbed the pistol and took it out halfway while saying, “I’m a cop, bitch.” Boston went to the leasing office to call 911, and Ingram followed him.
When officers spoke with Ingram, he stated he was walking his dog when Boston approached him and started cursing and calling him a “motherfucker” out of nowhere. He said he knew his rights, adding that he lifted his shirt to grab his credentials from his back right pants pocket, and Boston yelled, “He got a gun,” so he walked away. Ingram advised that he never touched his firearm.
On February 27th, Ingram informed detectives that he did have his black holster on during the incident but did not have his pistol. Then, he changed his statement, advising officers that he put it away on a top shelf and told them he had misspoken when he told the responding officer he had his firearm on him. On February 29th, a warrant was issued for his arrest.
Andre Ingram was booked on a summons on April 26th, charged with assault.
