Davenport man facing charges after firing gun at residence

A Davenport man was arrested after reportedly firing on a home following an argument on Sunday.

Police say 23 year old Devin Michael Sird faces charges of intimidation with a dangerous weapon, possession of a short barrel rifle or shotgun, possession with intent to deliver marijuana, failure to affix drug tax stamp, carrying weapons and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Around 12:30 Sunday morning, Davenport Police wee called to a home in the 1100 block of Scott Street for a report of gunfire.

An arrest affidavit shows that Sird had reportedly left voicemails and texted a woman for several days and made threats to shoot her boyfriend. After Sird arrived at the house, the woman and several others came outside to confront him and an argument ensued. Sird displayed a silver handgun, according to the affidavit.

Sird then reportedly fired one round and struck the front door after the woman and the others went back inside. Investigators says he was later located at his home in the 600 block of West 17th Street.

Officers searched his vehicle and found spent casings in the back seat of his vehicle, but no gun was found in the vehicle. A short barrel shotgun was located inside Sird's home. Officers also found a large amount of raw marijuana, digital scales, bongs, and pipes, according to the affidavit.

Court records show Sird posted $10,000 through a bail bond company and was released from the Scott County Jail. He has a preliminary hearing May 27th.
