A suspected love triangle led to gunfire on the U.S. Marine Quantico base, leaving a husband injured and the man he believed was having an affair with his wife in handcuffs, court documents said.

It was early Sunday evening when authorities say Traveen Thomas confronted Aaron Barnard Roberts about his belief that Roberts was having a “relationship” with his wife, Petty Officer Darquita Rashae Thomas, court documents filed in Alexandria’s federal court said. Both Thomas and Roberts are civilians. A Marine spokesman said it wasn’t clear why the men were on the base.
