A group of 12-year-old girls were visiting homes to sing Christmas carols Saturday night when Anne Arundel County police say a Maryland man pointed a gun at them.

Paul Susie is facing assault charges and is accused of pointing a loaded handgun at the three girls as they stood on his front stoop caroling in the 1700 block of Point No Point Drive, according to police.
