Bullets found lodged in home

A Durham homeowner says he's concerned after finding bullets embedded in his home located near a rifle range in Wallingford.

The Blue Trail Rifle range is a well run organization. Safety is a paramount rule there and although I've not visited this range recently I'm sure they'll correct any deficiencies immediately. T

Doesn't sound safe to me.

After seeing video of this on the news last night I have to disagree.

This house is almost a mile away, across the river and though the woods. It's been struck numerous times (garage door, the roof, through the siding), including one round through a window and lodged in a bed.

Granted the velocity is down significantly, but I would still be seriously afraid if I lived there. This is coming from someone who possesses an NRA Sharpshooter award.

Jeesh - who's shooting over there - Stevie Wonder?

Let the people shoot!! It's just a few bullets why doesn't he put up some protection? I own a rifle and I don't believe the people shooting are doing anything wrong

What do you recommend? A kevlar fence? They may not be doing anything wrong but there should not be stray bullets.

Why not? It's a rifle range.... People are learning how to shoot. I suppose you came out of the womb with pin-point aim. Sure get a kelvar fence.

You obviously came out of the womb without a brain. If you hit a house a mile away from your target then you have no business even trying to learn how to shoot. Unless you point the gun at your own head.

I'd be interested in what was there first - the house getting hit by bullets - or the range. If the range was there first, any building around it should have been planned a bit better.

Wonderful idea. Point it at your head.

Don't worry, there is a round with my name on it when the time comes. In the mean time I think I will shoot at your house since you think it is ok.

I can't even aim in the toilet bowl....

Would a surveillance camera pointed at your computer monitor have prevented your threat to shoot him?

If I was the guy that lived in the house I would just shoot back.....

I did't threaten to shoot him. That would be too quick and painless.

Don't forget to put the seat down when you're done.
