A husband and wife were reported in a verbal disorder on their front porch on Hooker Road. The man told police he was in the residence when he heard glass break. He said he came outside to investigate and found his wife had broken the window. He said this is when the verbal disorder began. He said he was angry that his wife had been gone all night and about her breaking the window. Police informed him that because he and his wife are married, she was within her rights in breaking the window to gain access to the residence. Police also told him that his wife is an established resident at this address and cannot be forced to move out. The man provided police with a video of the incident that was captured on their front porch camera. Police observed the video which showed a verbal argument between the two. Police spoke with the wife, who said she had been locked out of her house, possibly by her husband, prior to breaking the window because she did not know if he was home. She said once she broke the window he came out to the porch and the verbal disorder ensued. She said he told her she needed to leave and began throwing her belongings on the front porch. Police suggested to both of them that they separate for the time being to keep the situation from escalating. They came to the solution that the wife would gather some of her belongings and leave until the situation deescalates.
