PORTSMOUTH � A Maine man is charged with five crimes alleging he fired a .40 caliber round from a pistol during a domestic altercation early Wednesday morning.

Police said they were called Oct. 31 at 12:35 a.m. to the area of 142 Kane St. for a report of a "domestic disturbance involving a firearm." Following an on-scene investigation, officers determined Trevor Wright, 32, of 134 Indian Lake Drive, Lebanon, had fired a semi-automatic pistol "in an unknown direction" before running from the area.

Police said the domestic dispute began at a downtown bar, where Wright threatened a woman with bodily harm. The pair then left the bar together and the argument continued inside a vehicle they were traveling in, according to police. After driving to 142 Kane St., Wright continued to threaten the woman, took her cellphone from her and threw it to the ground while she was trying to call police for help, according to a press release by Lt. Eric Kinsman.

Police said Wright then fired the gun and ran off. Multiple patrol officers searched the area before finding Wright on Woodbury Avenue, police said. The pistol was recovered by officers from the Kane Street scene, police said.

Wright was then arrested for two felonies alleging reckless conduct and domestic violence and three misdemeanor counts of domestic violence, criminal mischief and criminal threatening, police said. He was held without bail and transported to the Rockingham County jail where he awaits Felonies First arraignment with the Rockingham County Attorney�s Office, according to Kinsman's press release.

Police said the incident appears to be isolated and urged anyone with any information to call officer Matthew Fredrickson at (603) 610-7667.
