I live in a typically extremely dull part of Centennial. About 2:25 this morning I was woken up by small caliber gunshots, 4 of them with about a 1-2 second interval between. Called it in, was told others had called already. I wonder if someone was going after some kind of wildlife, guess I?ll never know.

Didn?t hear any yelling/shouting/vehicle noise etc. Weird.

I neighbor here claims he used to take out squirrels with a .22 on a regular basis.

People post reports of gunshots on the Amazon Neighbors app at least a couple times a week.

The neighbor that would be most likely is out of town lol-without the foxes and coyotes we used to have the rabbits are out of control. Wouldn’t be surprised to learn that’s what it was.

Couple times a week? Seems daily near Union & Woodmen.

Hahahaha!

Or your HOA.

Your life will soon be filled with old ladies asking- Was that a gunshot?!?

No, Gretta, that was not a gun shot, it was a 20 year old kid that can't tune a carburetor.
No, Alice, that was not a gun shot, it was a duck.
Yes Wilma, that was a gun shot. We live very near the Cherry Creek State Park rifle range.

It makes me want to set up impromptu drive-in movies around town with outdoor speakers (all set before noise ordnance takes effect :D). Run movies like "Terminator", "Scarface", "The Wild Geese", "Black Hawk Down", etc. I don't like dicking with LEO trying to protect the community but I'm also annoyed by the expansion of a surveillance society.

Definitely gun shots, two other neighbors around me, all quite familiar with gun shots, agreed-small caliber. We've been having serious issues with raccoons too in this 'hood.

Isn't that one of those fun spinny target things we are supposed to shoot at during red lights? If you hit six in a row, the light turns green!

I wonder if you had three people at three locations all fire at the same time if it would register it as a gunshot in China.

City folk ignore sirens and are concerned with gunshots.
Country folk ignore gunshots and are concerned with sirens.

We hear shots most every day(game bird farm nearby and Dove/Pheasant/small game season open and we all pretty much plink/target shoot in back yard) but a siren will bring everybody to the porch to look around.
