A woman who was angry because her husband wanted her to turn up the heat pulled out a gun and shot their flat-screen TV while he cowered behind a pillow…
The 65-year-old man called 911 Sunday night from the basement of their Washington Township home, about 25 miles north of Detroit.
“My wife’s got a gun. She’s shooting at me,” Joseph Grucz said in the recorded call.
He told the operator that Cheryl Grucz, 61, was angry because he wanted the heat turned up. She fired a round while he hid his head in a pillow, striking the plasma TV, then went upstairs, the Detroit Free Press said.
”She’s all excited about it because she’s so cheap,” the husband said.
His wife, who had picked up another extension, told the operator she wanted to tell her side.
”I’m not going to hurt him. He has pushed me over the edge, that was all,” Cheryl Grucz said, according to a recording obtained by WXYZ-TV. ”He has had a stroke, and he’s taking it all out on me.”
”No I’m not,” her husband said.
”Yes, he is,” she told the dispatcher.
Cheryl Grucz was arraigned Monday in Romeo District Court on a charge of assault with intent to do great bodily harm, a charge with a top penalty of 10 years in prison. She also faces a felony firearms charge. Grucz was freed on $50,000 bond until a preliminary examination Jan. 15.
The judge also ordered her to enroll in a domestic violence program, WDIV-TV said.
I’m guessing this fool drove her to this, yet he found a way to play victim when he called 911. Wives like this put up with shit for years. What’s wrong with shooting up a tv every now and then just to blow off some steam?
>If she had really wanted to kill him all she had to do was shoot his way, not at the TV.Punk ass whiny husband.

>LOL. I am from the D and I cracked up when they aired on local TV. She also mentioned about his daughter and other issues he had. SMH.She could have killed him in SO many ways so let her take a class on domestic violence and call it a day. It sounds like she need rest and a good stiff one or two. LOL.

>It's one thing to stick by your man through thick and thin, illness and health. It's another to be subjected to psychological and emotional hell because they don't know how to handle their illness. Who knows how this man was treating his wife after he had a stroke. She probably reached her breaking point.
