Palma Local Police have arrested a man who was armed with a revolver and threatened several officers in Palma’s Plaza España: “If I catch you one by one, I’ll blow your heads off”. The suspect, a 20-years-old Spaniard, is accused of a crime of threats and serious disobedience to the agents of the authority. The events took place at 6.30 a.m. on 15 January, when officers from the Integrated Security Unit (USEI) who were patrolling the area were alerted by a woman who identified herself as a National Police officer. The officer reported that she had observed a man wandering around the square with suspicious behaviour and that he had approached a woman in a strange manner.

It's a starting pistol with Hilti-style caps, not a firearm, and it was found when he was searched. He didn't brandish or threaten with it. Legal to buy/own, not so to carry in public, but it will be a lesser charge than threatening with or using it.
So he had a gun and was threatening to kill people and was released?
