From the Kent County Sheriffs Department -  On April 10, 2011 at 7:23 PM, deputies responded to a weapons complaint in the 9700 block of Sunset Ridge Dr NE. This is located in the Saddle Ridge housing development in Algoma Township.  Residents living there found that a rifle bullet had gone through their exterior wall and into an unoccupied bedroom.  On April 12, the neighborhood was canvassed by Kent County Community Policing and Michigan Department of Natural Resources officers.  It was discovered that two other houses in the neighborhood had also been hit by bullets.

Through their investigation, it was determined that three Rockford area men had fired the bullets from an AK-47 rifle and a .30 X .30 caliber rifle while target shooting at the Rogue River Extension Area, located one half mile from the homes damaged.  They have been cited for misdemeanor Reckless Discharge of a Firearm.
