A man shot himself in the arm after his girlfriend refused to have sex with him, according to deputies.

Dispatchers got a 9-1-1 call from an apartment at 112 4th Street around 1:30 a.m. from a woman claiming her boyfriend shot himself and then passed out in the kitchen. Deputies found 29-year-old Jonathon Guabello lying on the floor with a wound to his shoulder.

His 24-year-old girlfriend said the two had been thrown out a bar because they were in a fight. She said Guabello was under the influence of alcohol and Xanax, according to deputies. She reportedly refused Guabello's advances when they got home, and went to sleep in another bedroom with her dog.

Deputies say she heard two gunshots. She ran to the bedroom, where Guabello allegedly threatened to kill her if she called authorities. Guabello, who allegedly became belligerent with deputies when he was woken up, was treated at Lee Memorial Hospital for a superficial gunshot wound.

He's charged with Domestic Assault and Firing a Weapon in an Occupied Dwelling.

Wouldn't flowers and choclates have been a better idea?

His demands got even more outrageous.
