My father-in-law's (FIL) neighbor has been shooting a pellet gun at his house in the middle of the night, a couple times per week for the last two years. My FIL has heard the gun fire and found pellets embedded in the house siding. He has called the police several times, they question the neighbor who denies it and then complains my FIL is crazy. The police say he needs video as proof.
We started to think maybe my FIL is going crazy b/c he is a retired LEO with the county he lives in. We just couldn't understand how the police wouldn't do anything if his story is true. My brother-in-law parked in the driveway one night and he sees someone walking around the neighbor's yard carrying what looks like a rifle and heard shots fired. He called 911 the police came and said the same thing, they need video to arrest him.
So the police want us to go outside where a firearm is being discharged and video it. Any suggestions on how to do this? I'll need video cameras with night vision but I don't see how this can be accomplished. Can we point camera's in the neighbor's yard? Any advice will be appreciated.
