Police in Colorado said Monday they have begun investigating Memphis Grizzlies' Ja Morant after he posted an Instagram Live video in which he displayed what appeared to be a gun while at a nightclub.
The Glendale Police Department confirmed the incident took place at a bar in Glendale, a small enclave surrounded by Denver known for its strip clubs and shopping centers. The department said it is investigating whether Morant might have broken any gun laws.
ESPN were the first to break the story, with initial reports suggesting that the incident had taken place at Shotgun Willie's, which bills itself as a "gentleman's club."
Capt. Jamie Dillon told The Associated Press that police did not receive any calls or complaints about Morant's actions but began looking into the matter Saturday after learning about the video circulating online.
Morant is away from the team as the NBA conducts its investigation. The Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins said that there would be "no timeline on the healing process".
