Tehama County sheriff's deputies received 21 calls in the past year from Kevin Neal and other residents of three ramshackle homes on Bobcat Lane, according to documents released Tuesday to The Associated Press in response to a public records request. But months after Neal's arrest, the women called the Tehama County Sheriff's Department several times to report Neal had been firing a gun. In one week in August, the two women called sheriff's deputies for help three times. Johnston said investigators believe last week Neal used two homemade assault rifles and two handguns registered to someone else. District Attorney Gregg Cohen said sheriff's officials never informed his office about the repeated calls accusing Neal of firing a gun but stopped short of blaming sheriff's officials.
