Gasaway and the officer both fell to the floor while struggling. She fell into a restroom and the officer heard something hit the floor. Assuming it may be a gun, officials ordered an evacuation of nearby courtrooms, but not the whole building.
About 20 minutes later, police say Gasaway opened the restroom door and officers shot her with a beanbag. That had no effect. About 30 minutes after that, Gasaway opened the door again and officers zapped her with a Taser.
Gasaway was taken into custody again around 3:35pm. She actually dropped her sunglasses when she fell. No gun was found.
