Two nights earlier at around 4am in that exact same area I was outside taking recycling out and I heard shots. One volley of 3 or 4 reports sounded like it was around 26th SW and SW 106th and the other was 5 distinct shots about 15 seconds later west of there around 33rd SW. I was two streets north on SW 104th.
