Police in Colorado said Monday they were investigating Ja Morant’s actions from the weekend after the Memphis Grizzlies star posted an Instagram Live video in which he displayed what appeared to be a gun while at a nightclub.
The Glendale Police Department confirmed the incident took place at a bar in Glendale, a small enclave surrounded by Denver and known for its strip clubs and shopping centers. The department said it is investigating whether Morant may have broken any gun laws.
Colorado is an open-carry state, although there are exceptions to the law, including the carrying of a firearm on federal property. It is illegal in Colorado to possess a firearm while under the influence of alcohol.
