A Quincy man is in jail after police say he pointed a gun at someone and made threats to kill them late last week.

The Grant County Sheriff's Office says the incident happened earlier this month in the 400 block of Q Street Southeast in Quincy when 50-year-old Felix Ramos Cruz got into a heated argument with another person and threatened to shoot them with a handgun he aimed in their direction.

Cruz was arrested last Thursday and booked into the Grant County Jail for investigation of harassment - threats to kill, aiming or discharging a dangerous weapon, and an outstanding warrant.
