where exactly are these things located? according to heyjackass.com there have been nearly 1000 persons shot in Chicago YTD, but this report says that only 115 incidents on the shotspotter. Of the nearly 1000 most of them are single victim, but about 100 are multi, with 2 being the second most common after singles at 83 so far. A rough estimate still has the incident number being over 700 which is far different than 115
