A bullet hole is shown below the second-story bedroom window of one of Luke and Lauren O’Connell’s children at their residence on Sunnyside Drive in Kalispell on Friday. The bullet from a recent drive-by shooting struck their house just below the window, passed through a wall and leather recliner and struck a bedroom door while one of their children slept inside.
