PORTSMOUTH, Ohio March 18 2010(AP) – The State Highway Patrol says a man working as a security guard at a state office entered an workers’ compensation bureau meeting and pointed a gun at participants before leaving.

Sixty three year oldĀ Robert Montgomery of Beaver was arraigned at Portsmouth Municipal Court on Thursday on one count of misdemeanor inducing panic.

He was released from the Scioto County Jail after posting a $1,000 bond following his Wednesday arrest.

The Highway Patrol says Montgomery is a guard at the Ohio Industrial Commission office in Portsmouth in southern Ohio. He’s accused of entering the meeting at the office at about 2:50 p.m. Wednesday and leaving after a short exchange of words. No one was hurt.
