Chatham-Kent Police Service officials allege: In the early morning of Sunday, January 28, 2024 at approximately 1:22 a.m., police received two calls from two residents regarding gun shots in the area of New Scotland Line in Ridgetown.
Officers attended the area and were unable to locate anyone, however, found several 12 Gauge shells and .308 casings.
At this time, it is believed that unknown suspects were shooting at deer that were observed ‘yarding’ a short distance from where the casings were located.
Nothing of concern was located in the adjacent field or nearby bush.
There is no danger to public safety.
