Shot fired at Targhee Hall

A single gunshot was fired at approximately 11:30 p.m. Sunday into a front window of the University of Idaho Targhee Fine Arts Hall located on the corner of Blake and Taylor avenues.
No one was injured, said Lt. Dave Lehmitz of the Moscow Police Department.
He said the gunshot created a hole but did not shatter the window, which has already been repaired.
“I believe there was a .45-caliber casing found at the scene,” Lehmitz said.
He said a snow shovel was also thrown at the residence hall’s window recently, which shattered the pane. Lehmitz said he does not believe the two events are connected.
The investigation is ongoing and suspect(s) have yet to be found.
Anybody with information regarding Sunday’s incident is encouraged to contact MPD at 882-2677.
“If you see something suspicious, don’t be afraid to call it in,” Lehmitz said. “Call whoever you need to — the police, the fire department. Don’t be afraid to come forward. Students can remain anonymous as well if they wish to.”
