'Accidental' discharge aimed out the front door? Yeah, right. I smell a
pissed off husband or boyfriend, and/or a drug deal gone bad. Does this
fellow have a history with the law? Around here, if the cops repeatedly
get called to a rental, the city padlocks the place for a year, and
landlord is SOL. They want landlords to only rent to law-abiding folk.
Unless he has a hell of good explanation, a clean record, and foots all
the repair costs, I'd be trying to get his ass out of there ASAP.
