INDIANAPOLIS — As much as we all want to have fun on Independence Day, police say your holiday should not include celebratory gunfire.
An Indianapolis family joins that call, urging people to be responsible gun owners after their home was hit by a stray bullet earlier this year.Tiffany and Jerome Barnett say they were lying in bed on New Year’s Eve when they heard the sound of gunshots. “What goes through my mind is that people could get hurt from it and it needs to stop,” Barnett said.
“Oftentimes when we have these high incidents, when we do have fireworks, officers are in position where they can hear and they can usually tell the difference,” Officer Thompson said.
