Answer:
Hi Stephen,
If a resident has been firing a gun, it is best to report the incident to local law enforcement immediately. Firing guns don’t only cause a disturbance; there is also a high risk of injury or even death surrounding them. The HOA may find itself liable for any damages, especially since it has been happening in a common area. Contact local authorities for assistance. Beyond that, your HOA may want to adopt a policy restricting gun use in the common areas.
