Rule clarification: Wrecker

So there appears to be some ambiguity around the Wrecker weapon rule. Leviathan Dreadnoughts have this on their Siege Claw, so they can walk up to a building and punch it during the First Fire or Advancing Fire stage. However my opponent today thought he could both punch an adjacent building AND shoot his remaining weapons at a nearby vehicle.

It’s possible this is true, however unlike other weapon rules like Point Defence and Skyfire, there is nothing in the Wrecker rule that says it can’t be used against a secondary target (although it does suggest it can be used against multiple buildings). My opponent believes it’s exempt from the targeting rules because it’s a melee weapon, but I’ve not found anything in the rules that confirms this.

I’ve searched the rule book and the Errata/FAQ for clarification, but neither appear to have anything that says you can (or cannot) do this.

Has anyone found anywhere in the rules that clarifies this?
