TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) -An investigation is ongoing after a stray bullet from a nearby gun range hit the monkey bars at the Gladden Farms Community Park early on Wednesday, Oct. 15.
The town of Marana confirmed there were no injuries, and no one was at the playground when it happened.
The town said an adult and a child were at the park at that time and heard the shot, and the bullet ricocheted off the playground equipment.
The Marana Police Department said officers were called to the park, located near Tangerine and Gladden Farms, early in the morning for a shots-fired call.
The bullet came from the Marana Shooting Club, which is located less than half a mile south of the park.
Marana Communication Manager Vic Hathaway told 13 News that the range was closed to the public on Wednesday
