A 29-year-old man in Eau Claire, Raymond Ramirez, faces 13 charges—including felony gun possession as an out-of-state felon, reckless endangerment, and straw purchasing—after allegedly pointing a gun at a dog under a bridge and firing a shot near a Dollar General that struck the store’s wall. Witnesses say he shot at JD, who had thrown soda cans; Ramirez claims he feared for his life and didn’t aim to harm. Police caught him after a chase, found a loaded handgun nearby, and noted he smelled of alcohol and had bloodshot eyes. He admitted to drinking and said his meds intensified the effects. Ramirez has prior warrants in Arizona and California, though not extraditable. The case underscores dangerous gaps in gun access and public safety when individuals with criminal histories and active warrants are still able to acquire firearms.
