Target Practice Can Start a Wild Fire 🔥 💥
A PSA from @tmfpd
“The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office and Truckee Meadows Fire & Rescue are reminding residents to be cautious when participating in outdoor target shooting activities this summer.
When a bullet hits a metal target or solid rock, friction can create hot fragments of lead or copper that are small enough to glow and hot enough to start a fire. A stray bullet can also seriously injure or even kill a bystander.”
