CHICO — There are many ways to achieve proper air circulation in one’s home, but firing a gun into the ceiling is a life-hack even Etsy wouldn’t touch.

Officers with the Chico Police Department were sent to a residence Sunday night at the 1600 block of Downing Avenue after a call came in regarding a woman who was refusing to leave the home, said a press release issued Monday by the department.

A half-hour later, a gunshot was heard by the involved woman and called in. Officers returned once again.

The release said officers met with Marc Schmidt, 35, of Chico, the original caller, who was intoxicated. After checking the scene, police believe Schmidt had fired a gun into the ceiling of the residence.
