We were over in West Alton near the West Alton Marina and Firehouse (the old Clough Homestead at the corner of 11 and 11A to Gunstock was also family) Basically if you head back into the woods to the SE of that intersection you'll come to an old quarry of sorts (no idea what it was actually used for) and that is where I spent many an afternoon.
Old Harold was the fire chief (and ran the Marina) and I'll bet if he didn't have any issues with the shooting, the police never knew we were in there.
