Two Montana Tech Students face felony charges for shooting live rounds in the direction of a student housing complex at Montana Tech early Sunday morning.

Clayton Giesick, 22, and Joshua Clark, 23, were taken into custody by a SWAT team shortly after 6 a.m. Sunday.

Officers responded to a report of gun fire around 1 a.m. They were unable to get a response from the occupants of the home but reported seeing a man hanging out the window with a gun.

The SWAT team was called in around 2 a.m. and entered after 5 a.m. when they had secured a warrant.
Both men were found inside the home and were reportedly heavily intoxicated and arrested without incident.
Authorities found five guns inside the home, including a 44 Magnum handgun and 30.06.

Giesick and Clark posted bond of $20,000 each and are due for a preliminary hearing on March 1.
