Another Shotspotter Miss

We smile every time these pop up:

  • A man was found shot to death inside a vehicle in Gresham on Friday night, but witnesses who heard the gunfire didn’t call police until they saw the man slumped over in his car about an hour later, according to an officer at the scene.

    The shooting happened in the 8800 block of South Lowe Avenue in a neighborhood that used to be covered by the city’s now-shuttered ShotSpotter gunfire detection system. If the system had still been active, it could have alerted first responders even though no one who heard the gunfire called for help.

It's amusing that Shotspotter might have helped.

It's even more amusing that the neighborhood doesn't care enough to call in "shots fired" for over an hour. 

This by itself should be justification for Larritorious to pull every officer out of that District and send them somewhere that actually wants the police around.
