A Lawrence man who police allege drew a pistol on a bouncer at a downtown bar was arrested late on the night of Oct. 13.

Jamie A. Adames, 21, was arrested at 11:30 p.m. outside The Pub on East Pleasant Street on charges of disorderly conduct, assault with a dangerous weapon and carrying a firearm while intoxicated, police said.

Detective Lt. Ron Young said Adames was causing a scene when asked to leave the restaurant, which he eventually did. "He waited for an employee outside. He basically wanted to threaten him," Young said.

When he observed the employee, Adames took a loaded 9mm pistol from his waistband and made threats before other employees took the firearm away from him, Young said. No shots were fired during the incident.

The weapon is licensed to Adames and he also has a license to carry the concealed weapon, Young said. Although listed as a student in an online University of Massachusetts directory, Young said he is not affiliated with the local campus.
