Hi everybody. Longtime lurker, rare contributor.

I was sitting here working at my computer and about ten minutes ago I'm pretty sure I heard between six and eight gunshots. We live in a pretty quiet part of Tujunga, near the corner of Plainview and Tujunga Canyon. Anyone else hear this? I phoned it into police, mostly because it scared the bejesus out of my wife and me, and we have two very young kids. No other weird sounds, no cars speeding away, etc. It definitely wasn't firecrackers or a backfire or anything like that. Anyway, pretty dang scary.

We heard something too, in Shadow Hills. We thought it was fireworks.

Cops stopped by to follow up on the report. They said they received 15 or so calls on the same incident, which makes me at least feel like I'm not crazy. Whatever the case, it was super close to our house. Police said someone reported seeing four guys running away, but I'm not sure they were so sure about it. Made me feel better that they showed up and chatted with me about it, if nothing else. They're scoping out the neighborhood. Hope they get to the bottom of it.

i definitely heard them. i'm in n. sunland. scared me also. i thought it was quite close but wasn't sure if they were gunfire shots or not.

I was out walking the dogs last night at this time, Saw the bright flashes of light northeast of Apperson and Nassau, then heard the loud pops a few seconds later.

I'm down near Oro Vista on Hillrose. I heard it too.

I heard it too. I live above you, just below the gated estates. I thought it was gunfire and hubby said he thought it was fireworks, due to the last few pops being very rapid. I wish we could find these things out for sure (always like to prove hubby wrong - it doesn't happen often though)
