Well I was sitting up watching TV between 1am and 2am and heard a car pass with 3 popping sounds which sounded like fireworks, when we went to go to coles the car had what looked like a bullet hole on top of door shattering window which is still held together.....found out neighbour had cops at her place because she noticed a bullet hole in her car.... They retrieved the bullet and what I thought was fireworks was actually a gun. We're all good and safe and very fortunate no bullets entered the house. Picture is from Bullet recovered from neighbours car, the one that hit ours ricocheted over the roof somewhere.   Merry Christmas everyone... |

Wow, glad everyone is ok.
That is not what you want, especially round this time of year. Hope they catch the buggers.

Ugh.. was hoping I left that mess behind in the states. Glad to hear you're ok. I had the window of my truck shot out a month before I came to Australia. However, it was parked on the side of the street in Los Angeles.

That's terrible Art - I am glad you and your family are okay. Hope they catch these lowlifes. Be useful if someone nearby had outdoor cameras + your timeline to at least make out the car if its not too dark. Probably known to the police.

Wow, good your all ok, sadly LordJR, we seem hell bent on being just like the USA. Our own identity seems just not cool enough.
Hope there not after your new detector Art. A act of cowards.

I'm glad you and your family are O.K. as well as the people next door shame but that's the way Australia's going following in the footsteps of the U.S.A. and there's noting you can do to stop it so it's just lucky no one was hurt anyway good luck for the future and don't forget to keep your heads down if it happens again cheers |

Geez there's always some bloody wankers out there..
glad no one was hurt.. but the outcome could have been a sad one, as one bullet is all it would take..
Try and have a good Christmas..
