A shooting incident occurred sometime July 4th evening or early July 5th morning behind our property along Gerard Road involving our hay bale wall protest regarding the gun range. On the way to work on the morning of 7/5, we noticed one of the signs included in our hay bale sound wall protest appeared to be shot at. Close up it was very obvious that someone had.
