A man fired a shot from an automatic rifle toward another man following a verbal dispute involving his spouse, who had earlier struck the victim with a blunt object and caused minor injuries. The suspect fled with the rifle, which was later recovered by police along with accompanying ammunition. A search of his residence followed and led to the seizure of a pistol held in illegal possession. Both suspects were detained, with the man facing criminal charges for firearm-related offences and the woman facing a misdemeanour charge for physical assault.
