2/1/13 - A Hartland man accused of firing a gun outside his home and threatening to use it at his wifeâs workplace in January has been bound over to circuit court. 37-year-old Brian Thomas Barnes was charged with reckless discharge of a firearm after police were called to his home January 15th on Lakena Street. His wife said he sent a series of threatening text messages through the previous evening and that morning following an argument that prompted her to leave the house and take their children with her. She called 911 after he threatened to bring the gun to the daycare center where she worked. When deputies arrived, they say Barnes, who is alleged to have been intoxicated, fled inside the residence. Crisis negotiators were called to the scene and after about 45 minutes of discussion, he came out and was taken into custody. Barnes is being held on a one million dollar bond. (TD)
