MIDDLEFIELD, Ohio -- The family who lives at a home along Nauvoo Road in Middlefield, was sitting on their porch last weekend when they were startled by a bullet hitting the house.

A similar incident happened at the home next door. There is a small hole in the siding where the residents believe a bullet hit the house though no bullet was found.

The Top Gun Firing Range sits just beyond the field that runs near both houses. They speculate the bullet came from there.

"Someone could've got hit. The biggest concern is the kids, there's a school across the road, that's basically what they're worried about is someone getting killed before something is done about it," David Mack said speaking on behalf of the Amish families affected.

The owner of the firing range, Ralph Spidalieri, says the range is built according to NRA regulations for safety. He shut down the range as soon as he heard about the stray bullets. When he visited the property, he could still hear gunfire from all directions. Spidalieri says he can't say whether the bullet came from the range or not.

"We try to run the safest range we can, and there could be an occurrence that something does happen," Spidalieri said.

Spidalieri says the range is most often used by police for training. It was open one day a week to civilians until this incident.

"As far as civilian use on our 500 yard range, that is closed until we can re-evaluate or find another source of where these bullets are coming from in the area that are striking these houses," Spidalieri said.

The Geauga County Sheriffs Office is also investigating.
