WINTERGREEN FIRING RANGE MOVING INDOORS

The police academy training range is moving indoors to the former Army Reserve Center thanks to a $1 million state grant.

 In Connecticut, from 2008 to 2010, homicide was the second leading cause of death among those ages 10 to 24 years, accounting for 132 deaths.

The Army Reserve Center is an ideal location for the shooting range—and the fact that it will be an indoor training range will significantly reduce the noise pollution in the neighborhood

The New Haven Register has the story.
