Man fires gun near neighbor
Cletus Howard Roediger, 31, of Rome has been charged with a misdemeanor count of recklessly endangering another person and disorderly conduct relating to a 9:30 p.m. incident on Aug. 7 on Merry Go Round Road in Windham Township.
According to police, Roediger saw a suspicious vehicle parked at the end of his neighbor's driveway and went outside with a friend to investigate. Inside the vehicle, Roediger's neighbor sat behind the driver's seat of a newly purchased vehicle, which Roediger did not recognize, as she finished listening to an audio book before parking the car.
When Roediger and his friend approached the vehicle, Roediger's neighbor saw the two men illuminated by brake lights and rolled the window down, which is when Roediger discharged a .45 caliber handgun, police said.
Roediger's neighbor asked if the two men just shot something at her, to which the men responded, "It was a firecracker," police said.
According to police, when interviewing Roediger about the incident, he originally insisted that a firecracker caused the noise. However, after police confronted him with a .45 caliber shell casing found at the scene, Roediger admitted to firing his handgun, police said.
He has been sent a summons to appear before Magisterial District Judge Fred Wheaton at 3:30 p.m. on Sept. 15 for a preliminary hearing.
