A Chicago woman has been charged with a firearm offense after police say she fired a gun into the air Saturday in the parking lot of Gizmo’s Fun Factory, 66 Orland Square Drive.
Orland Park police described it as a domestic related, and said nobody was hurt.
Kinara Allmon, 24, was charged with one felony count of aggravated discharge of a firearm, and released on bond following a court hearing Monday, police said. She has a concealed carry license and a valid firearm owner’s identification card, according to police.
Police said they were alerted to an altercation outside of Gizmo’s, and that an officer saw a woman, later identified as Allmon, holding a gun while a man tried to grab it from her. During a struggle, Allmon fired the gun into the air and the man was able to take it from her, police said in a news release.
Both were taken into custody for questioning, and police initially said that four people were taken into custody.
After investigating, police determined it was a domestic dispute in the parking lot of Gizmo’s following an argument inside the business.
An initial social media post by police indicated that the altercation leading up to the gun’s firing had taken place at Sky Zone Trampoline Park, an adjacent business that is at the center of a court fight between it and Orland Park.
The social media post brought hundreds of comments from posters questioning the safety of the business and calling for it to be closed.
Orland Park’s Village Board had, following a September 2020 incident at Sky Zone that drew a heavy police presence, voted to pull Sky Zone’s business license.
The village initially withdrew the business license last December, and upheld the decision in February after an appeal by Sky Zone. However, Sky Zone filed a lawsuit in Cook County Circuit Court in March.
Sky Zone has been able to remain open pending the initial appeal to the Village Board and now the filing of the court action, which was still pending as of early November, according to a docket report.
Further details of the court proceedings were not immediately available, and it is not certain when a judge might rule on Sky Zone’s appeal of the village’s license revocation.
Dozens of Orland Park police officers and police from neighboring communities responded Sept. 12, 2020, to Sky Zone after an employee made a 911 call about a fight in progress.
Three youths were cited under village ordinance for disorderly conduct, according to police Chief Joe Mitchell. Nobody was injured, he said after the initial investigation.
In seeking to revoke the business license, Orland Park also cited Sky Zone for exceeding occupancy limits.
How many people were inside Sky Zone at the time of the 911 call was not precisely determined, with Sky Zone officials estimating the number at perhaps 330 while police testifying at the initial license revocation hearing put the number at between 500 to 700 people.
The business said that, per fire codes, it had an occupancy limit of 682 people.
Sky Zone and Gizmo’s share a common parking lot, just east of Orland Square mall, and with a crowd of people being rounded up outside after the September police call, Sky Zone contended many of them had been customers of Gizmo’s.
