FALLBROOK, Calif. (AP) – Authorities say patrons tackled and disarmed a man after he held them at gunpoint outside a Southern California bar.
    
The San Diego Union-Tribune reports sheriff’s officials say the man had pulled a gun from his waistband and pointed it at people in the parking lot outside Red Eye Saloon at 2 a.m. Saturday in Fallbrook.
    
He demanded their wallets and cellphones and fired a shot into the air.

He was arrested on numerous charges and booked into the Vista jail.
