A 59-year-old Janesville man is facing charges including endangering safety by use of a dangerous weapon after an incident around midnight Sunday on the city’s southwest side. Police responded to a report of gunfire in the 2300 block of Garden Drive. Upon arrival they heard multiple gunshots and quickly identified the house where the shots were coming from. At about the same time the Rock County Emergency Dispatch Center reports a woman from inside the home called to say a man, also in the home, was responsible for the gun fire. After several attempts, officers say they were successful in making contact with Michael Howard. Police say he is in custody. Nobody was hurt during the incident.
