Did anyone else hear gunshots last night in the north slope? I live on Baltic between 4th and 5th and around 1030ish last night my girlfriend and I heard 3 shots. We called our neighbors to see if they heard it as well and they confirmed that they did so we called the police to report it. They asked if we lived near Warren St and I said yes. I asked the operator if they were recieving any other calls and they said they were. Anyone know what happened?

    I havent heard anything but there was a shooting over by the wyckoff projects the other day. So if it was over there thats 2 shootings in the last week or two.

    When you call the police to report something like that, should you call 911 or the local precinct? Just wondering in case I ever need to know, which I hope I don't.

    Call 911. I posted the original post but I was logged in under my gf's login without my knowledge. 911 said they were getting a bunch of calls regarding this last night.

    I have family in Wyckoff projects and were not aware of any shootings last night. I'll let you know if this changes.

    Arches, the speed of sound isn't that fast. Maybe the walls of the brownstones slow it down as well? (let see who else bothers to figure this google error out...)

    MODs, don't you think one of these comments (about the strollers) is inappropriate. Some things just aren't funny
