A man who fired shots at his father-in-law’s house in Zebbug yesterday night denied slightly injuring his father-in-law Carmelo Farrugia and damaging the wall of his apartment.

The shots were fired during a family argument in Zebbug yesterday.

His wife begged the police not to let her husband Keith Micallef, 30, out because she was scared of him.

Police Inspector Chris Pullicino noted that consequences could have been more serious consequences because the gun was fired where there was a baby.

Mr Micallef was also charged with firing a weapon within 200 metres of an inhabited area.
