A Fillmore man is facing several felony charges after allegedly firing a rifle at a home in Andrew County.

Cody Martin, 31 is charged with two felonies for first-degree assault, a felony for discharge/shooting firearm at a structure, a felony for unlawful use of a weapon, a felony for armed criminal action, and a felony for first-degree property damage.  All of the charges allegedly stem from an incident that took place early Monday morning in the 8800 block of County Road 58 in Savannah.

According to court documents a man reported his home had been shot at shortly before 2:30 a.m. waking up himself and his wife.  Deputy Grant Gillett with the Andrew County Sheriff’s Office reported in court documents to finding several apparent bullet holes in the front door and front window.

“Andrew County Deputies and members of the Missouri State Highway Patrol later located several spent shell casings on County Road 58.  It was also discovered that the post for the mail box had been hit, along with a business sign that would have possibly caused damage to the suspect vehicle,” Gillett said.

The victim allegedly told officers he believed it was Martin who shot his house up due to an ongoing feud.  Another deputy allegedly responded to the house where Martin lives in Fillmore a little before 4 a.m.

“Deputy Hudson did make note that a maroon Ford F-150 sitting in the driveway was still warm in the engine compartment, and the windows did not have frost on them,” Gillett said. “Cody invited him into the residence.  While speaking to him in the living room, he noticed a rifle sitting next to a chair, along with two other firearms.”

Gillett said he then responded to that location.

“Cody gave written consent to officers to search his residence and his Ford F-150 sitting in the driveway.  During the search two .22 rifles were seized one being the gun Cody stated he was shooting earlier in the night,” Gillett said.

Officers allegedly recovered shell casings in the truck that matched shell casings found at the scene of the shots fired.

“Cody stated that he was just so mad that his life was ruined…and that he just wants some justice done,” Gillett said in a probable cause statement. “Cody stated that he was the sole person in the vehicle and that he never planned this, it just happened.”

Martin is currently being held in the Andrew County Jail on $50,000 bail. A court date is not yet shown on online court documents.
