Five reports of gunfire, all in different areas of Flagler County, were called in to the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office Sunday, Feb. 16, but none resulted in any charges or arrests, according to Cmdr. Bob Weber, public information officer.

The sounds of gunshots were reported in Bunnell, as well as Palm Coast’s B section, W section and near Palm Coast Parkway.

The reports are listed as follows:

7:18 a.m., area of Blyth Place, west of Interstate 95, Palm Coast: Loud bang and several pops were heard. Unable to locate anything.

4:28 p.m., area of Clove Street, Bunnell: Possibly 30 shots. Subjects were located on their own property. Had sufficient backdrop. No illegal activity reported. (Certain kinds of residential gunfire in the county is legal, Weber said. “Many of the residents on the west side of the county have large undeveloped parcels of property,” he added.)

7:01 p.m., area of Palm Coast Parkway, Palm Coast: Eight shots, or possibly fireworks, were heard. Unable to locate anything.

9:28 p.m., area of Wentworth Lane, Palm Coast. Eight to 10 shots heard. Unable to locate anything.
