LEDGEWOOD, NJ – MARCH 24: ‘Operation Fix-It’ technician Manfred Shultz changes the batteries on a smoke detector inside a senior’s home on March 24, 2014 in Ledgewood, New Jersey. The progam, run by Hope House, a division of the non-for-profit Catholic Family and Community Services, provides home repair services for elderly and people with disabilities in Morris County, New Jersey. Repair services, such as weatherization, plumbing, carpentry, masonry and electrical are charged on a sliding scale for low income residents and are free for seniors living on a fixed Social Security income.

Police say the man fired his 20-gauge shotgun twice inside of his apartment at his smoke detector/fire alarm. The man was upset with false alarms continuously happening and frustrated with the building not relocating the alarms, so he relocated them himself. There was even a standoff between the man and first responders.
