South Loss, I'll call the calling party on Gold. 299-hour case number. 2-9-9-9. 44, calling party saying they were outside, heard a child scream coming from the southwest, and then heard a very loud... Bang, just one shot. But no cars, driving away the area, no it allowed arguing, just a one loud gunshot. Yeah, boy, there's a neighbor didn't hear anything and there's a church going on right now, but we would have expected to get more calls and we could walk that parking lot. mind talking to somebody at the church that didn't hear anything either. We drove through the locks as well. Dispatch checking on 35. 10-4. 21 of motorcycle theft report in 1607 East Ferry. 211046. Thank you. W.H311 on North the emergency traffic. Negative question. I talked to a resident at 1606 North Chautauqua. He said he heard the bang came out of his house and saw a puppet smoke here at the intersection at 15th in Chautauqua. With a vehicle going westbound, it could have been backfire from that, or he also sounded like it could have been a mortar round from fireworks break. There was also a man going eastbound walking his 10 speed. He said that person did not seem startled, so he thinks this is probably backfire or mortar round or something.
