Update\picture below.
I've debated sharing this. Here we go.
Feb. 5th Saturday at around 10pm wife and I have put the kids to bed and are talking in the kitchen when we hear three rapid gunshots. Blam... Blam.............Blam
Our dogs start barking like mad, my wife and I look at each other for a couple of seconds and then my son comes out of his room saying he's also heard gunshots.
At this point (30 seconds in) I'm doubting myself, gunshots or fireworks. Well, fireworks normally don't come in 3 and they had a ring to them.
Grabbed a pistol and flashlight (45 seconds in) checked the front door was locked, it was, dogs are still on edge, most likely cause I was and we turned out the lights.
I called 911 and at the same time was checking my daughters, who were sleeping, with the flashlight for bullet holes.
Gave the report that I heard shots fired out side towards the front of the house, no, i didn't see anything, she said she'd dispatch a patrol car and I asked if I should hang up. She said yes.
I called the neighbors around me. Next door the guy heard the shots as well, agrees they sounded like gunshots, he'd gone outside and didn't see anything, didn't call cops? I know the dude only has a 22lr rifle that may or may not be shootable right now, idiot.
The phone for the single lady across the street just rang, looked out and I don't see a car in the driveway, from my blacked out window so I'm less concerned.
30 min later the patrol car comes by with his lights going up and down the street a few times. I get a call from the patrol car, he didn't find anything, had talked to a few people up the street that agreed they were gunshots. I'm the only call reporting it??????
I go outside and there are a few neighboors outside as well. They are all like, did you hear that? I'm like ya, I called 911, they're like "That was a good idea".
One good thing:
One guy who didn't hear the shots but noticed the commotion, turns out he's a gun enthusiast as well and has a couple of NFA items in the works and is clearing out some property of his for a 1000 yard range. He also hog hunts there with his NVG. He did his trust though SC-Texas here.
So this may be a cool neighbor\shooting buddy to get out of this.
