A Shot In The Dark (or 9 or 10)

A reader writes in describing being awakened at 3:20am by a volley of shots in the area of Wilson and Broadway.

"I just woke up to gunfire really close to my place.  I could hear the sound of the shots echoing off the buildings across the street from me.  It seemed to go on forever, though I'm realistically guessing it was 9 or 10 shots.  There was a lot of yelling afterwards, and I saw a blonde female running away, crouching down behind posts and then running like the hounds of hell were after her. What a great wake-up call for my elderly houseguests.  Who needs caffeine?  Of course I called 911 right away."

Anyone else hear anything?

  3. Regarding the alleged shots heard around 3:20 am, the officer who investigated the matter, said they were firecrackers.

  4. I heard it too, and it didn't sound like firecrackers.

  5. The parents must know where their kids are. Ultimately, they need to be held responsible for their minors' behaviors.
