https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/2022/may/15/kingsland-water-tower-shot-silhouette-of-johnny/Upon arriving at the Kingsland municipal building early Tuesday, the city's water office manager Betty Graham discovered that a hole had been shot through the adjacently located water tower tank. But it does not appear to be a random shot as the precise location of the bullet hole makes it appear that the image of the Man in Black is relieving himself.

Yeah, she climbed up there and investigated. I wouldn't be surprised of some kids with a cordless drill made a strategic hole. I would agree to that. That isn't a small hole judging from the amount of water spewing out and that metal isn't thin enough for most guns to penetrate. If you have one that can, then shooting it from the ground will still result in a small dent and a ricochet bullet.

You are correct Unless it is a 50 Caliper military round or .338 Lapua (SP?) with armor piercing rounds Depending on the metal thickness and material used in the building of the tank

If this was in the unmoderated area I would say a few things I can't say here, but yes, I doubt it was shot...
The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.
