A man whose roommate punched a painting apparently decided to help by
firing a gun into it and was subsequently arrested, according to a
spokeswoman from Prescott police in Arizona.
Louis Cancelliere, 38, of Prescott, was arrested on May 16 and charged
with discharging a firearm within city limits, a felony, reckless
endangerment, and trespassing after he fired his .45 caliber handgun at
the painting, Lt. Amy Bonney said.
"Cancelliere told officers his roommate had taken the painting outside for an unknown reason and had been punching the painting," Bonney said.
Cancelliere "became frustrated" with the roommate and went out to ask him "if he just wanted the painting 'dead,'" Bonney said.
He fired at least one round through the art work, she said.
Officers located a handgun and spent casing from a .45 caliber handgun nearby, she added.
