Sticks and stones may break your bones, but for one Detroit police officer, words allegedly led him to shoot at a Ray Township couple's home.
Officer Clifford Gullion, 32, was charged Thursday with two counts of discharging a weapon into a building and two counts felony firearm during a video arraignment in 42-2 District Court of Romeo.
Bond is set at $250,000. He is being held at the Macomb County Jail. He faces possible jail time of 10 years for discharging a weapon and an additional two years for the felony firearm charges.
Gullion of Ray Township was arrested early Thursday morning for allegedly firing five shots from a .40 caliber handgun after his wife was involved in a dispute with the homeowners, Macomb County Sheriff Anthony Wickersham said during a press conference. No one was injured.

I really have to wonder about employee screening at these departments. Do they do a psych screen?
Also, this is a fairly high level of aggression -- did the department test for steroids? What constitutes an "investigation" at these departments? These details need to be made public.
If an ordinary citizen had been involved in alleged behavior like this, there would be charges of attempted murder or something similar. Had enough of this fubar behavior yet?
