(GunReports.com) — An Indianapolis man will test a new Indiana gun law that allows people to keep guns in their cars at work and prohibit employers from asking about gun possession. Thomas Jordan filed suit against ADM Enforcement Inc., accusing the company of violating the gun laws when it fired him Sept. 1.
Attorney Guy A. Relford says Jordan, 28, was showing an AR-15 rifle he had in his trunk to co-workers on July 6 while off duty and not on company property. The weapon accidentally discharged, and though there were no injuries, Jordan received a written warning saying the AR-15 wasn’t an “ADM authorized weapon.”
Jordan was fired Sept. 1 and was told it was because he had in his vehicle a firearm not authorized by ADM.Attorney Relford said the reason cited for the firing violates the 2010 take your gun to work provision and that the supervisor’s question violated a 2011 provision barring employers from asking about weapons.
