(AP) -- Police say a dispute over manure led to a man firing his shotgun near his neighbors and police later using a Taser to subdue him. The Saginaw News reports the man approached his neighbors in Huron County's Huron Township, about 110 miles north of Detroit, Saturday as they spread lime and manure on their farm.

Police say the 45-year-old fired his shotgun and then aimed the gun at the couple as they approached the fence in their tractor. Authorities said the manure dispute had been ongoing. Officers responded and a Taser was used to subdue the suspect, who was held in the county jail pending charges.
