MARSHFIELD – A 29-year-old Marshfield man is in custody following a Sept. 27 incident at a Marshfield apartment complex.

Shortly after 1:30 a.m. a man in an adjoining apartment unit reported that he heard multiple gun shots coming from the apartment.

“Officers made contact with a 29-year-old man. The man’s apartment window had damage consistent with multiple gunshots, which the man originally attributed to his cat,” a Marshfield Police report stated.

“The man was found to be in possession of two firearms and later admitted to discharging one of the guns.

“He was arrested and transported to (Marshfield Medical Center) ER, where he completed a blood draw.”

The man was later transported to the Wood County Jail. Charges are being requested with the Wood County District Attorney’s Office.
