A Texas man was arrested after he allegedly shot his wife's laptop with a handgun because she was playing music too loudly on it.

Gary Lykins, 44, was taken into custody early Saturday after he barricaded himself inside a home near Marine Creek Reservoir in Fort Worth, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported.

Police reportedly dispatched 16 units to the home over a nearly four-hour period after receiving a call around 2 a.m. A SWAT team was called to the scene, according to the Dallas News, but Lykins surrendered before it arrived.
