he pulled a gun on an Uber driverearlier this week who was dropping his daughter off. Sean Hollonbeck forced the driver out of the car and onto the ground

As it turned out, the 13-year-old snuck out of the house Saturday night and took an Uber to Pensacola, about 30 minutes away. When he discovered she’d snuck out, he reportedly called both the Santa Rosa County and Escambia County sheriff’s offices, but didn’t get much help from either department. So when she got back home, he made the only logical decision and pulled a gun on the completely innocent Uber driver.
I'm not sure I would even consider this an over-reaction. You wake up to find your 13yr old missing from her room, call the police, they do nothing, but then she shows up later with some stranger just dropping her off?
It sucks for both the driver and the father, but when you strip away all the pearl-clutching it comes down to this all being the girl's fault for sneaking out in the first place. None of this happens had she not done that.

I can understand the emotions that might have led to this reaction from the father, but I think it’s pretty objectively an over-reaction.
I get that he’s upset about his daughter sneaking out, but that doesn’t give him the right to pull the guy who brought her home out of his car at gunpoint and make him lie face down on the road while searching him. Even if the driver had been a friend of the daughter rather than an Uber driver, it would still have likely amounted to false imprisonment and assault.
Unless there are some serious omissions from the story right now, it looks to me like he fricked up and is paying the consequences.
