Girl fired single shot in home, prompting manhunt
A two-hour police search for a reported gunman yesterday turned out to be anything but. Police reported this morning that the incident was sparked by a single shot fired by a young girl in a home in the Town of Woodbury. Police said there was no armed gunman and no home invasion, as originally suspected
Troopers, sheriff’s deputies with K-9 units and Woodbury and Blooming Grove police searched the area around Bakerstown Road between Acres and Seven Springs Road Monday evening for what was then described as a white male, about six-feet in height.
Because the shot was fired near the densely-populated village, schools were shut down and children immediately bused home at 4 p.m.
