Good morning, you will need to call animal control to have the animal removed from your yard. We do not handle rodent/pest control. Please also note, shooting a weapon in a neighborhood is extremely unsafe & may be a violation of city ordinances.
Sam, if in the future you have trouble with a wild animal in your backyard, please go to any means necessary to ensure that it's safely removed, instead of senselessly shooting and killing it. I would recommend calling a landlord (If you have one), or animal control, but please do not use a firearm inside of the neighborhood as it could cause unrest and needless panic among the community.
