A Foley man was drunk and on drugs when he began shooting at imaginary people Sunday, according to Gulf Shores police.

Officers responded to a report of shots fired in the 400 block of East 21st Avenue just before 10:30 a.m. Sunday. Witnesses provided police with a description of the suspect and officers quickly located him and took him into custody.

The suspect, identified as 33-year-old Christopher Andrews, was shooting at imaginary people when he began firing, according to police, who said Andrews was having an alcohol and drug-induced hallucination.

“When we interviewed him, he inferred there were people in his backyard, running away and climbing over the fence,” said Gulf Shores Det. Carl Wittstruck. “When we investigated, however, we found there were no people, but Mr. Andrews appeared to be under the influence.”

No one was injured in the incident, with shots Andrews fired striking a tree, a fence and a kayak, Wittstruck said.

Andrews has been charged with possession of a controlled substance, public intoxication and discharging a firearm within city limits. He was booked and released on bail from the Gulf Shores Detention Center.
