CLARENDON — A 61-year-old man from Shrewsbury was cited for reckless endangerment following a shooting incident in Clarendon back in 2021.
Authorities say they were notified by a homeowner of a gunshot through the inside of her residence on Beacon Heights on November 16, 2021.
Police say they arrived on the scene and discovered that a large caliber bullet had been fired into the home and went through several walls and rooms before being lodged in an outside wall.
A lengthy investigation revealed that Scott Ryan had been hunting in a nearby field at the time of the incident and shot at a deer in the direction of the residence.
Police say Ryan’s round traveled through a small tree line before striking the residence.
He was processed at the Rutland barracks and issued a citation to appear in court to answer for the charge.
