I need to air some concerns

by Welsh Citizen Editor Bengt Lindell

It was Sunday morning, August 19. My wife and I were sitting on the front porch drinking our morning coffee. All of a sudden a series of gun shots ripped through the quiet morning.
”Did you hear that?” I asked Pat.
“Yes,” she replied.
“I wonder If I should call the police,” I said and reached for my cell phone.
I did call the police. A few minutes later a Welsh police unit stopped by the house. The office approached us and asked, “You heard gun shots? In what direction was it?”
