Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, authorized by Congress in 1966, is located approximately 50 miles southeast of Chicago, Illinois in the counties of Lake, Porter, and LaPorte in Northwest Indiana.

Appellees next argue that they cannot be liable for a public nuisance because they had no control over the instrumentality of the nuisance. Because they have no physical control over the handguns at the moment they are used to commit crimes or otherwise injure the citizens of Gary, Appellees argue, they cannot be held liable for a public nuisance. It is true that City does not allege that any of the Appellees controlled the handguns at the moment that harm occurred; however, this argument misses the point of City’s allegations. City has claimed that Appellees wrongfully created, promoted, supported, and supplied an illegitimate secondary market for handguns in Gary. (Complaint, ¶ 69). Thus, City has alleged that Appellees control the creation, promotion, support, and supply of this market. See Cincinnati, supra, 768 N.E. 2d at 420; City of Boston v. Smith & Wesson Corp., 12 Mass. L.Rptr. 225, 2000 WL 1473568 at 14 (Mass. Superior Ct. 2000) (&# ... [Read More]
