Considered to be intoxicated, Shepherd started using racial slurs at staff and derogatory language. He then allegedly pushed two kiosks to the ground, destroying them. Afterwards, he picked up a stanchion and swung it at staff, subsequently shattering two windows.
Shepherd then exited the building and kicked the front window with his leg, shattering the window and injuring his leg in the process. Police say Shepherd had a strong odor of alcohol emanating from his person with slurred speech and bloodshot eyes.
