Soil and water tests have confirmed lead contamination in portions of Naperville's Sportsman's Park shooting and gun range.

Officials with both the park and the city of Naperville say they will work together to clean up the contamination.

The property has been used for sport-shooting since 1937. Lead pellets were used until 1999 when they were replaced with steel pellets.
