Idaho 2nd Amendment Alliance
State Senator Christy Zito (R – Mountain Home) took over 1,000 petitions to the Caldwell Night Rodeo that were from Idaho’s gun owners opposed to CNR’s gun-free zone.

A male employee at a Boise business fired a weapon in self-defense after being attacked by three individuals. Boise Police report that one of the suspects, Bailey Geesey, entered the business and stole alcohol. The employee confronted the 18-year-old female, instructing her to leave and not return.
