West Valley City, Utah — Bullets fired from a nearby park hit a West Valley City man’s home over the weekend.
Scott Dorius said gunshots woke him and his wife and they found bullet holes in their window.
According to Dorius, Kingspointe Park, across from his home, is becoming an issue as gangs move in at night since the park’s lights are no longer working.
He tried to get the city to help, but he’s still waiting to hear back, he said.
“So, we’re just anxious to get some help from someone. Because the police are doing all they can, I think. To a point. But, the city has to give them the resources to stop this from happening,” Dorius said. “Heaven forbid we would have been in our living room. We could have been shot.”
West Valley City officials say they are investigating the lack of lighting.
