(DETROIT NEWS) The Detroit Police Department has launched a pilot program that uses light pole sensors to pinpoint for police where gunshots are fired.

"We're still doing some testing to determine if what we're hearing are indeed gunshots," Craig said. "There's a little tweaking that needs to be done yet."
