If I feel a gun owner is unstable or has threatened to unlawfully use a handgun, can a gun owner lose their handgun permit (if they have one)?

If you feel an individual possess a threat to himself or others, please call 911 immediately so that the Sheriff’s Office can investigate. If the individual holds a handgun permit and is found to have a propensity for violent or emotionally unstable conduct, then the Sheriff’s Office will notify the Indiana State Police Firearms Section and request a permit revocation hearing. The Sheriff’s Office will also take whatever immediate action is necessary to protect the individual or others from harm.
