EL PASO COUNTY, Colo. -- The El Paso County Sheriff's Office says a fight between a man and his daughter got out of hand Wednesday night, now dad is facing serious charges.

Deputies responded to a report of a shooting in the 6200 block of S. Calhan Road at around 7:30 p.m. on June 1, 2016.

Investigators say Robert Williams, 38, was fighting with his daughter when he pulled out a gun and pointed it at both his daughter and his wife.

Deputies say Williams told his daughter to go get a gun from another room in the house so they could "duel." They say there was a struggle, during which Williams fired a shot. They say the daughter then fired a shot. No one was hit.

The sheriff's office says Williams then went to the shed and got another gun, which he pointed at his wife. At this time, the wife grabbed the rifle, her children and went to a neighbor's house.

Williams faces charges of menacing, prohibited use of a weapon and child abuse.
