The man (allegedly) tore his own house down with a Kubota excavator while his wife and daughters were inside!

Talk about being a hothead!

Here's CBS News:

According to the criminal complaint, Pierwsza's wife told police that her husband arrived at the family's home after drinking all night and began arguing with her.

When she told him the marriage was over, investigators say he responded with a chilling threat: 'If it's over, I'll tear the house down.'

Police say moments later, Pierwsza climbed into the excavator and began tearing into the house while his wife and two daughters were still inside.

Dude had the Kubota sitting outside and was ready to use it!

Absolutely wild.

Pierwsza is now facing several charges, including causing a catastrophe, reckless endangerment, and disorderly conduct. Court records also show his wife planned to seek a protection-from-abuse order following the incident.

Yeah, I can see why Mrs. Pierwsza wants a restraining order.

I hope they took away the Kubota keys too!
