Grant County Deputies were called to a rural area a few miles southeast of Moses Lake about a weapons threat on Wednesday.

According to the GCSO, mid-morning, they were called to a large shop located at 1096 Road L.4-Southeast, in an unincorporated area near town.

69-year-old Howard G. Bailey, the suspect, was renting the facility, but when the landlord served him eviction papers, he pulled out a handgun and threatened the person.
