The drive-by shooting phenomenon has left the city.
A rural northwest Indiana man's Paso Fino riding horse was found limping and bleeding on Tuesday after apparently being hurt in a drive-by.
The man and his wife heard about five rapid gunshots around 11 p.m. Monday from their home on a county road just west of Valparaiso. Immediately after, they heard the squeech of tires and a car speeding off to the east.
The horse's injuries were discovered the next day.
A veterinarian examined the horse Tuesday and determined it was shot in the front shoulder and rear hip with a small-caliber weapon. She chose not to remove the bullets, according to the police report.
At the time of the shooting, the animal was in a pasture near its owners' residence.
