A Landers man was arrested Wednesday after he threatened his wife with a pellet gun. According to a Sheriff’s report, a witness reported about 4:45 p.m. that Gary Zumwalt, 61, of the 5600 block of Handley Road, was beating up his wife and threatening her with a pellet gun, and told her he was going to kill her. Zumwalt then took his wife into the house and moved a dresser in front of the door to keep her from leaving. Deputies use a public address system to ask Zumalt to come outside and when he did, Gary Zumwalt was arrested on suspicion of making terrorist threats, booked into the Morongo Basin Jail, with his bail set at $50,000.
