A man was arrested for allegedly pointing a loaded gun at a security guard at a restaurant in Babylon early Sunday morning.
Police say 25-year-old Atilla Goksen, of Lindenhurst, was removed from Monsoon Restaurant and Lounge after he was "involved in an incident" inside the restaurant around 1 a.m.
While outside the Deer Park Avenue restaurant, police say Goksen pointed a loaded handgun at a security guard before he was wrestled to the ground by multiple employees.
Investigators say Goksen then dropped the gun and fled on foot, but was arrested a short time later on Main Street in Babylon.
Goksen is charged with criminal possession of a weapon, menacing and three counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance. Police did not say which drug Goksen allegedly had in his possession.
