does anyone remember if the rodmans next choice just had the cop present at rodmanas neck or did it specifially say while engaged in an authorized training cycle at rodmans neck outdoor range?
Actually the procedure states while lawfully engaged in target practice it is not considered a discharge. But in additional data it covers accidental discharges. Under the additional data it has a line about shooting range incidents. So i believe it can be protested. Shooting down range while at a range and letting an accidental round go that goes thru the roof of a range are two different things. I think All claimed accidental discharges require an investigation.
FIREARMS DISCHARGE INVESTIGATIONS-ACCIDENTAL DISCHARGES AND SELF-INFLICTED WOUNDS
The circumstances of each case shall be judged on their own merit. Factors such as on/off duty status, fitness for duty, contributing circumstances (e.g., struggle with suspect), shooting range incidents etc., shall be considered in making a determination about the necessity of firearms removal.
@gotabimer Wait i thought discharges at ranges dont apply?????
If the question stated "which of the following is MOST CORRECT" - then your answer is Bellevue. If you have to string a bunch of stuff together to support your case, I don't think you'd have a chance at appeal.
I think if they didnt put accidental in the answer you wouldnt have a chance. I think the procedure means when ur lawfully shooting at a range it is not considered a discharge. If they wanted to include accidental discharges they would have put while lawfully engaged in target practice including accidental discharges at such facility.
Just trying to get some input. I know i passed just trying to help out those borderline that might need the point.
uknowme is right, all the choices specified exactly what the scenario was, One was standing in from of the safety station in Bellevue, the second discharged a shot gun while hunting, the third discharged a firearm while target practicing off duty and finally discharge a firearm while attending Rodmans neck for the cycle. Even though the safety station requires an investigation, the last choice lacked to specify whether the firearm was discharged while qualifying or not. That's makes it a bad choice. You shouldn't use have to use your imagination, everything should be in the choices.Therefore both the Safety station and the rodmans neck discharge require an investigation.Double answer.

It says that a discharge at a safety station in a dept facility does not require an investigation.

Im gonna have to agree with your explanation, which is well stated... It was a confusing choice, I can't even remember which I choose, at this point... I totally agree with the lack of specifying if it was while qual or gun cleaning! lol
