“Witnesses and friends all said he just pointed it straight up in the air. And so he wasn’t aiming at anybody,” said Captain Bob Higginbotham, who spoke to local outlet KZRG. When police asked Liaina his reasons for discharging his firearm in a public place, they received an unusual answer. Liaina allegedly told officers he shot into the air because he was upset that Conor McGregor had just defeated Nate Diaz in their much anticipated rematch at UFC 202.
“It was apparently his method of venting,” added Higginbotham.
Liaina was charged with a single count of unlawful use of a weapon. In Missouri, that offense can be categorized as either a misdemeanor or a felony - depending on the circumstances. If found guilty, Liaina may incur up to $5,000 in fines.
No one was harmed in the incident. Ulysses Liaina Jr. is considered innocent until proven guilty.
For all the shit Conor fans get, this is hilarious, at least we don't go shooting.
