Police say a mom set up an undercover meeting with Cerry Banks after she learned he was inappropriately texting her 13-year-old daughter.

Police said Banks flashed a gun in his waistband and told the mother, “When you hear shots, you’ll know what’s up.”

The mom called police after Banks threatened her. When police arrived, that’s when Banks took off.
