When a suspicious vehicle is driving passed a residence at approximately 5mph and backs up and stops in front of residence where there are children playing in the yard and the vehicle parks in front of the yard taking photos and videos, thats the reason she approached the vehicle. There was no visible markings on the white pick up truck to indicate it was law enforcement, And the gun was never pointed at the sherif.
