Milton police have accused a Janesville man of entering the home of a Milton family and waking them with a gunshot before threatening them.
Cesar Flores Hernandez, 30, is the boyfriend of one of the victims.
A criminal complaint filed in the case states the woman told police she fought with Flores Hernandez on Monday after she learned he had cheated on her.
She told police that later the same night, she was sleeping in her bed with her nine, eight and one-year-old children, while a six-month-old slept in a nearby crib. She claims a gunshot woke them up, and that Flores Hernandez then put a gun to the face of two of the children before making them all sit on the ground while he pointed the gun at them.
