Glad you are both OK... Sucks that it happened, but as others have stated, it is not unusual.. a foreign exchange student was shot thru the window of a vehicle with a 22 in my town a few years back.. bullet is still lodged in his neck, as it was too close to the spine and nerves and such to remove.. that poor kid has a life long momento of his stay in Orleans... two local kids were arrested, but nothing came of it.. hard to prove.

Glad you both are OK. This sucks! ANy chance it was a remote thing? Or has it happened other times in the area? Though very slim chance of it being an "accident".

I remember when that happened to Mike, Barb, and Felicia (7 or 8 years ago?) at the Cordage Park show (Slip, I think they stayed at the show). They were understandably freaked out. Turned out it had happened a few times in that area...

Police report says "nothing found or unusual seen in area", thanks, I asked if it had before and they were "deflective" of my question. If it isn't local kids than it's got to be the Van Stal rep, after all the sh!t I give them they probably want to have me whacked.

Why even try.........

Yup--about what I expected Hey man, it's Falmouth and it's August. Crap like that never happens on Olde Cape Cod--only in places like Brockton and New Beffa

Hey, at least they accept that it was a bullet. In Bourne they would have written it off to a pebble kicked up by a phantom dumptruck you just happened to miss seeing.

Exclamation

took your whole window out? or just put a hole through it? pellet gun and .22 LR are more likely to do the latter.

very upsetting nonetheless.
