Deputy spoke with complainant, who advised his front windshield was struck by a metal object he thought could have been from a pellet gun while he was travelling on Claridon Troy yesterday. I observed the object and determined it was a ball bearing. He also stated this happened when vehicles were passing him going the opposite direction.
