A similar situation happened at a Texas bar where an attorney attempted to kill his ex-girlfriend.
Gavin Rush,41, was caught on video attempting to shoot his ex-girlfriend at the bar where she worked but he was tackled by two patrons. The incident took place on November 26 when Rush entered the Anderson Mill Pub in Austin with a gun to confront his ex-girlfriend after the pair reportedly ended their relationship last month.
Earlier this week there was a shooting at a local bar in my district. This attorney belongs behind bars, pending a lengthy jury of his peers. I’m deeply disturbed watching this video and committed to a safe city. pic.twitter.com/eHbjnlEDxd

In the video, Rush placed a satchel on the bar and asked her if she could speak with him. The woman told no and Rush allegedly pulled the weapon out of his bag. Forutnately, two male patrons tackled Rush to the floor and he attempted to shoot himself during the altercation.
One of the good Samaritans explained to police that he managed to keep Rush’s finger off of the trigger and Rush fired three shots. However, the bullets only struck a mirror where his ex-girlfriend was standing as reported by Fox News. The woman explained to police that she was trying to move on from the relationship and stopped texting Rush.
He was arrested and placed in police cusody but was later released on a $40,000 bond. Days after his arrest, Rush was found dead in his apartment after officers conducted a welfare check. However, investigators did not disclose how he died. Before his death, Rush was fired from the law firm he worked at due to the nature of his arrest.
“Gavin Rush no longer works at the firm. We do not tolerate hatred or violence of any kind. Our thoughts are with the victims who experienced a significant trauma that day.”
