Knockaert was denied bail and will stay in custody to face a range of gun-related charges, including reckless discharge of a restricted firearm.
Police allege Knockaert fired a single round from a Ruger .22-calibre pistol after being awoken by a noise from the kitchen in his apartment -- a place he shared with a roommate and whose girlfriend was a frequent presence.
The shot sailed clean through a garbage can and lodged in the doorframe of the couple's bedroom, Devine was told.
Knockaert is alleged to have then entered their room while still brandishing the gun and angrily accusing her of taking his grub. The couple quickly dressed and fled, with the roommate calling police to the scene.
The woman later informally told police Knockaert had accused her of stealing a can of his beans.
"She said she showed the accused the can he was referring to, which actually turned out to be a can of Alpha-Getti that she had purchased," Dojack said.
The woman felt "confident she had been shot at".
Knockaert was peacefully taken into custody following the standoff, which required police to bring in their heavily armed tactical support unit.
He told investigators he had no intention of hurting anyone and that "the reason he fired the gun was the woman 'was driving me crazy, she just didn't listen'," Dojack told Devine
