Long gone

5/16 At around 3:30 p.m., a Deans Way resident reported that the previous night, at about 2 a.m., she’d heard what sounded like gunshots just below her bedroom window. The woman told police that her husband had initially advised her not to call police because he didn’t want to deal with them at such a late hour. When police responded to the home, they were shown a spent 16-shot roman candle the woman’s husband had recovered from the front yard. Police told the resident that if she ever again hears what she believes are gunshots, or anything else suspicious, that she please call police immediately.
