A man on East Auburndale Avenue told police Colpetro had fired several shots at a home there because he was mad at his granddaughter for breaking up with Colpetro. Police found four shell casings in the street in front of the home and a window was damaged by gunfire, reports said.

The witness told police where Colpetro lived and officers went to a home on East Midlothian Boulevard, where they found the car Colpetro was driving hidden in the backyard.

A woman in the home first refused to open the door. She then opened the door but refused to allow officers inside to search for Colpetro.

As officers surrounded the home, assisted by police from Boardman, Colpetro jumped out of a second-floor window and he was caught in some high grass in the back yard. Paramedics treated him for a cut to his hand, reports said.
