Without proof the shots were aimed in their direction this should have gone no further but I suspect it was an advertising opportunity for Josh whos populaeity might have been dropping.

I dont think it matters if the shots were "to scare game away"
If someone shoots in your direction, in plain sight, they are guilty of at the very least, careless use, if not attempted murder.
Of course, proving it is a different matter.

And I dont believe that Josh would stoop so low , just for publicity
