Givon Busby, the salesman who worked at a sneaker store in a Memphis, Tennessee, mall, told The Washington Post he hid in the back of the sneaker store scared as Morant threatened him.

Busby reportedly filed a report for Memphis police but never heard from authorities again. Authorities reportedly never listed Morant as a suspect.

He told the paper he spent about an hour hiding from Morant "shaking" with emotion while the NBA player and about eight or nine others shouted at him through the door.
