A stray bullet from recreational shooting broke the window of a camper on a neighboring property in Morgantown.
A couple called the police at 5 p.m. Saturday after they heard shooting from a neighbor’s property in the 7900 block of W. County Road 600S.
A bullet hit the front of the camper and broke a window. The officer also discovered a hole in a plastic window shade, according to a report from the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office.
The officer collected the bullet, which likely came from a 9 MM or 40 caliber handgun, the report said.
Renters of the neighboring property allowed guests to shoot guns during a party. No backstop was in place to stop stray bullets, according to the report.
The renters were cited for a county ordinance violation and the report was forwarded to the Johnson County Prosecutor’s Office for review, the report said.
