Charges filed in campground gun incident

STARKVILLE (WCBI) – The woman at the center of a viral video which showed her displaying a gun while asking a couple to leave a Starkville campground now faces charges.

70-year-old Ruby Howell surrendered Tuesday morning on a misdemeanor warrant of exhibiting a weapon in a threatening manner.

The case unfolded last Sunday when a couple said they were trying to visit the lake at the KOA campground when Howell told them to leave because they did not have a reservation.

The KOA corporate office fired Howell from her post as the assistant manager when the incident unfolded.
