Galveston appeared to be a small peaceful community . However on a bit of research the following popped up:
Stray bullets from a gun event
in Galveston struck at least one home, a garage and a car.
The incident happened back on
April 14.
No one was injured, but a
mother was shaken when gunfire broke out a window, struck a door and nearly hit
her and her 5-year-old daughter. The bullets came from a Russian machine gun
being fired more than a mile away.
A nearby garage and vehicle
inside it were also hit, according to police. There was a shooting event going
on at a rural home and sponsored by Down by the Tracks Gun Store, according to
the police report.
The store and police had
different accounts of how many people were at the event, but it was between 15
and 70 people.
No arrests were made and it’s
unclear if any laws or regulations were violated. Local authorities did contact
the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
Once again, look beyond/behind the surface. Often the backstory provides an more informed judgement.
