What appeared to be a serious situation Saturday afternoon , turned out to be an argument between 2 truck drivers. Officers of the Liberal Police Department and the Seward County Sheriff’s Office were dispatched to Express Lane at the Corner of Highway 54 and Western Avenue at approximately 1:55pm on the reports of a gun being pulled on a truck driver. Upon arrival, officers located the suspect and cuffed the man to secure the scene. After a search of the truck and the scene no gun was located. Officers learned that the two truck drivers had earlier gotten into a heated argument, when one of the men called Dispatch and stated that the other truck driver had pulled a gun on him. Officers responded with a Felony Stop, no weapon was found and the man was allowed to leave the scene.
