An argument between a couple over parenting their daughter ended with a wife pointing a loaded gun at her husband, Bethlehem police said.

Andrea Baggest was arrested Thursday morning and charged with reckless endangerment, making terroristic threats and harassment. She was sent to Lehigh County Jail in lieu of 10 percent of $20,000 bail.

Bethlehem police said they were called at 12:15 a.m. Thursday to the couple's home in the 500 block of 11th Avenue for a husband and wife fighting.

Baggest's husband reported his wife was intoxicated, and began screaming at their daughter over her clothing and not being home. When the husband started arguing with Baggest, she allegedly hit him in the head with a shoe.

Police said the husband left the house, but that the 41-year-old Baggest called him and reportedly told him she had a gun from his truck. The husband went back home, where Baggest held the gun sideways and pointed it at his face, police said.

Baggest appeared to have her finger on the trigger; the gun had a magazine with 15 rounds but no round in the chamber, police reported.

Baggest told an officer the couple was arguing over parenting issues, and that her husband began smacking her in the head multiple times.
