Gun shots start 2012

  I live on the west side of Fort Worth (TX).  I went to bed at 11:30 PM and I woke up at 3 minutes after midnight on January 1st to the sounds of gun shots.  For the next 10 or 15 minutes I heard gun shots from different types of guns and in different directions.
  I did hear what sounded like fireworks one or two times.
 
  I hope and pray that no one was hurt.  I did not tune into the police department to see what they were doing at the time.
  Last year I went out side with my digital camera to make a video and get the sound for the video but a police officer pulled into the apartment complex and I decided I better go back inside without making a video.  Did not want some sort of error to take place.  Did not want the police officer to see me pointing a digital camera and thinking it was a gun.
 
  This year I did not get out of bed. 
  What a shame that Americans have to fear being hit by a stray bullet at the start of a new year.
