The sound woke me up, too. Gunshots were my first thought but the pops sounded too random so I chalked it up to fireworks. Probably another wedding or birthday party.

Thanks for the replies. Heres to hoping I heard fireworks! I was dead asleep so I easily could have mistaken fireworks for gun shots.

There were fireworks right near that location at just that time. Not smart, considering how dry the tall trees in this neighborhood are after this dry summer--embers coming to rest in a dry bunch of needles high in a tree, and burning unnoticed for a while--worrisome! If you know the people who were setting them off, please tell them not to endanger their neighbors any more.

I heard fireworks here a couple miles north of you around that same time. But I'll ask police later this morning if they had any shots-fired calls.

Was anyone else woken up around 12:32am with shots fired around 100th and 40th? I heard about 8 shots, the last 3 in rapid succession. They didnt sound close to our intersection, but loud enough to wake me up in a frenzy.
