ASBURY PARK — Police say an Asbury Park man pointed a loaded .357 magnum handgun at a woman because she wouldn't let him cut into a checkout line.

Avorn Brown of Asbury Park is held in the Monmouth County Jail on $50,000 bail, charged with assault with a deadly weapon.

Police told the Asbury Park Press Brown pulled out the gun at Tropical Liquors in Asbury Park when a female customer refused to let the 50-year-old go ahead of her on Thursday.

It's not clear whether Brown has hired a lawyer.
