FAIRBANKS (AP) — A Fort Wainwright soldier faces a felony weapons misconduct charge because police say he fired several shots through an apartment wall following a dispute with his wife.
Clinton Wesley Shufelt was also charged with misdemeanor counts of assault, reckless endangerment and unlawful discharge of a firearm.
Shufelt's wife told police she arrived home early Monday to find her husband intoxicated and angry because she wanted to go back out. He allegedly pushed her down and slapped her across the face.
According to a criminal complaint, the 27-year-old Shufelt fired three shots into a wall after the woman ran for help.
