In a partially block-randomized experimental design, 17 acoustic sensors were co-located with CCTV cameras in a balanced design that matched the sensor camera sites with equivalent control locations. Gunshot-related incidents within 900 ft of both intervention and control sites for 8 months pre- and post-intervention were examined with multilevel negative binomial regression models. After implementation of the AGDS, gunshot incidents increased by 259%; however, there was no significant increase in the number of confirmed shootings. The AGDS did not significantly affect the number of confirmed shootings, but it did increase the workload of police attending incidents for which no evidence of a shooting was found. While awaiting technological improvements and considering the operational goals, police departments may wish to reconsider the current operational plan and objective of an AGDS Journal of Experimental Criminology - Registration at source 3/9/2018 Research article Met Police sells off £1 BILLION worth of property as cuts lead force to ‘breaking point’ The UK’s largest police force has sold more than £1billion worth of property over the past six years, amid claims funding cuts are leading them to "breaking point".
