I live right on Vernon.

Most the bangs, this month, have been firecrackers. There have been a few that our neighbors all think were actually gun shots, though. The problem with these is simply the echo factor. If there is a fool firing a gun, and we don't see the fool, we don't know where the noise came from after it bounced all over the neighborhood. If we call the police and say, "gunshots somewhere," the best they can do is come out and drive around looking for something that looks like a crime scene.

If nobody was actually shot at, there won't be any sirens or noise like you are expecting.
