A man from Middletown, N.Y. is accused of renting a bulldozer and demolishing the house he shared with his wife. The only thing is, he did not inform his wife he was going to knock down the house, as she is the legal owner of the home.

NBC New York reports that James Rhein was arrested Monday as he was in the process of knocking down the house. He was arrested at the scene and was cooperative with police when they arrived. He reportedly explained to authorities that the house was beyond repair, even going as far as to cut off all utilities.

He was charged with criminal mischief and has been released on bail.

We have a feeling this one isn't going to end well for their marriage.
