Full Notification

As 2012 is coming to a close, there are some who are looking forward to welcoming the New Year with celebratory gunfire. Crescenta Valley Sheriff's Station would like to remind everyone of a few key points to remember while celebrating this New Year’s Eve;
--Shooting a gun into the air is a felony. You will spend time in prison if you are caught.
--If you are arrested for shooting a gun into the air, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
--If a stray bullet from your gun should kill someone, you will be arrested and charged with murder.
--People involved in celebrating the holidays by shooting their guns do not realize the danger posed by their actions.
--A bullet fired into the air can climb up to two miles. When it falls back to earth, it can reach a speed of 300 to 700 feet per second.
--If you ever see someone fire a gun into the air, call the police at 9-1-1.
--Celebrate holidays safely and responsibly. Don’t’ fire guns into the air.

Remember, what goes up will come down. Celebrate the New Year safely.
