two 911 calls
2024-May-25, Saturday 04:02 amThat was a first. I made two calls this morning to 911 to report gunfire.
2:45am or so: I woke to the sound of a few gunshots. It was outside the 2-block radius I use to decide whether to make a call or not. I rolled over and went back to sleep.
3:08am: I heard 3 bursts of 3 very rapid shots. I couldn't determine direction, but it seemed at the edge of that 2-block radius, so I called to report it.
3:35am: I heard 9 shots again, but these were slow and evenly spaced like a traditional gun trigger. Also within 2 blocks, so I called again. I spoke to the same operator.
I'm not falling back asleep, so I figured I would tap a quick post from my phone. I wake soon for work. It will be a caffeine day for me.
