A Franklin Township man has told officials he’s concerned for the safety of his family after his home was struck by gunshots.

Andrew Loudon, who resides on Old Mill Road, told township supervisors on Tuesday that back in October, there were people hunting birds.

“They literally hit my house,” Loudon said. “The park said it’s really not a park issue, so I’m really stuck (in the middle).”

Loudon said he’s lived there for 20 years and never had any issues until about six months ago.

“Technically on the map, it’s a hunting zone,” Loudon said. “I can understand guys wanting to hunt there, but they shouldn’t be hitting my house.”

Loudon reiterated that he’s aware that it is a hunting area, but that neither he, nor anyone in his family, should have to worry about getting shot.

“If somebody gets shot, there’s going to be a serious problem,” he said. “I just believe it should be a safety zone.”

Supervisor Leroy Kemmerer Jr. noted there are a bunch of houses right there.

Loudon concurred and added, “You got families, and everybody walks on that trail.”

Supervisor Robin Cressley asked if the township wants to have signs put up.

“We got to at least get it posted,” Cressley said, offering to reach out to the game warden.”

Loudon said he really hasn’t had a problem until about six months ago, and added he doesn’t think people should be able to shoot into a safety zone.

“I just don’t want to have one of my grandkids shot,” he said. “I don’t want to get shot.”

The property in question was given an address of 295 Grange Road, Dusty W Wing Shooting Preserve Inc. Upland Bird Hunting, bird dog training.

The owner of the property is Troy Johnson, and the owner of Bird Hunting is Mike Wagner.

Board Chairman Fred Kemmerer Jr. assured Loudon he would attempt to reach out to the two people.
