They said a man "entered a location," allegedly threatened to shoot mayoral candidates and then brandished what looked to be a gun. On Friday, police said they recovered a pellet gun."There was no threat specifically to one mayoral candidate over another," Kwong told reporters. "That is going to be a separate investigation … we do believe that it is the same person responsible," Kwong said.
