A 43-year-old Oceola Township man is in the Livingston County Jail awaiting arraignment on numerous charges stemming from an incident at his home during which he fired numerous rounds from his gun.

According to a release from the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office, the man was at his home in the 2000 block of Fisher Court at about noon Sunday, Dec. 8, 2024, when he fired several shots while standing in front of his wife’s vehicle as she was trying to back out of the driveway and leave with their children. Deputies found that he had previously fired his gun inside the home, with one of the rounds traveling through a wall into a room near where one the children was sitting.

His wife and children were able to leave the house unharmed. Once deputies were on scene, the man continued to fire his gun inside the house.

The Livingston Region Swat Team, along with the Livingston Regional Crisis Negotiation Team, assisted. After the negotiation team made contact with the man, he agreed to exit the resident and surrender. A search warrant was executed and several firearms were located, and there was evidence showing that a large number of shots were fired from inside the house into the walls and floors.
