It was friggin' scary to hear! We noted the time and then saw it in the news the next day. Heard the getaway car. Live mid-town in lovely townhouse development but my unit faces the outer un-sanctum. First time I KNEW for sure what I'd heard was a gunshot. No one hurt and an arrest made shortly after. We were just ear witnesses but still scary.
Oh, wow. This is powerful.
