Drag queen Charlemagne Chateau was reading at Loyalty Bookstores when Montgomery County police were called to the area around 1 p.m., according to local NBC affiliate WRC-TV.
That account was denied by a member of volunteer group Parasol Patrol, according to community news outlet Source of the Spring.
