....in la Porte
If your query is correct as written, the answer is no. There is no incorporated area in Indiana that would allow you to shoot in your backyard.
LaPorte County police Capt. George Ritter said discharging a firearm in unincorporated areas of the county is not against the law.
"Yeah, it's legal but you have to do it safely," Ritter said.
If arrested, the man likely will be charged with criminal recklessness, Ritter said.

Well I caught the neighbors son in my house and informed them that if it ever happened again they would bury him,after that is when the problems with them started.I thought I did them a favor.
So all of the threads/AARs we see with folks running rounds into a natural bunker out in their field, etc, are essentially evidence of illegal activity? I don't think that's the case. Could you provide some code? My understanding is that the state does not provide any restrictions (therefore not illegal = legal) but towns/cities/townships are known to restrict discharge of firearms in populated areas usually defined as within city limits. Is this wrong? I would think the answer to the OP's question is: If you're not within the confines of an incorporated town/township/city you should be OK. If in doubt, call the legislative body or DA for the area your zip code is included in.
