Mark Bornino, R. Daniel Volpone, Ohio Men, Drank Alcohol, Fired AK-47, Hit Neighbors' Houses: PolicePolice in Montville Township, Ohio, arrested two men, Mark Bornino and R. Daniel Volpone, after they allegedly drank alcohol and fired off guns, including an AK-47 assault weapon, during target practice Wednesday.
Unbeknownst to the men, police said, the bullets ripped through their paper marks and hit houses 500 yards away, narrowly missing families in their homes. In once instance, bullets tore through the walls of a house and hit a microwave, reportedly moments after a woman exited her kitchen, according to NBC local news station WKYC.
Startled residents called 911 after hearing rapid gunfire, but according to ABC's WEWS in Montville Township, responding officers were soon dodging bullets themselves as they traced additional shots. When I get about a half mile back in the field up on a hill, gunfire started again, and started hearing rounds go over my head, Montville Police Sgt. Matt Neil said to WEWS.

When will appliances have gun rights, too?
This is deplorable.

Of course they'd all have to be owned, carried-in, and fired by 10-12 "good guys".

the only thing that stops a bad party with a gun is a good party with a gun?
Isn't that the NRA response?
