Highlight

For mental health commitment, the law allows a court to act on warnings and does not require actual violence or expressed threats.
A mentally ill person, convinced that snipers are out to get him, who, armed with a gun, walks directly into a police station without stopping at the front reception desk may pose a serious risk of harm to others.
