location of the shooter is as of yet unknown ... the bridge on one side is up for the winter
I believe the bridge goes up for spring, not winter.
No mention by Ch 13 whether the bullets(s) fired could have been caused by the fire and not a shooter.

A possibility. Now I wonder. What are the odds.

My understanding is that if tossed into a fire, it’s generally the shell casings that become the projectile, due to having less mass than the bullet.

I don’t believe that an unchambered round going off due to a fire would have enough energy behind it to go very far or penetrate much. I could easily be wrong on this, though.

I threw a few bullets in a fire when I was a youngin, age 10. Still have a major scar where it tore into my arm at the crook of my elbow. Had to have the fragment removed years later that lodged in.
