An example of just how nervous people have become over shootings recently.

Officers met with the homeowners and determined that it was not a gunshot, but a firecracker that had caused the noise.

"Homeowners were enlightened to the sort of disruption that such a noise can cause.," reports Constable Samantha Bigley.
