New ShotSpotter - CFD

Been a few days since a bullet-riddled body (alive or dead) showed up, but never fear! Chicago won't disappoint:

• A Chicago Fire Department truck crew, on their way to a major fire in Little Village on Friday evening, ended their response upon finding a woman shot in the 3400 block of West Van Buren.

  The firefighters reported hearing gunfire in the area, but no 911 callers reported the shooting before CFD found the woman. ShotSpotter, the gunfire detection system, monitored the 3400 block of West Van Buren until Mayor Brandon Johnson pulled the plug on the technology on September 22.

  Chicago police said the victim, a 30-year-old woman, was walking when someone fired shots from a vehicle around 9:19 p.m. The fire department truck crew encountered the woman and requested an ambulance more than ten minutes later, at 9:31 p.m. She was in critical condition with a gunshot wound to her abdomen, according to CPD.

Once again, not a single call to 9-1-1. 

If nothing else, it ought to be used for body cleanup efforts.
