The Maidstone Gun Club voluntarily closed its rifle range after a bullet struck a house nearby and a judge has ordered the whole facility to remain closed as the neighbors argue in court that the range should be shuttered permanently. In this week’s podcast, senior reporter Michael Wright joins the editors to discuss where the court battle stands, the police investigation’s conclusions and the fate of the gun club.
