Gun violence in America: Do something

Across the country there is a long list of ideas on how to best reduce gun violence during this nationwide surge.

It's 7:51 p.m. on a warm Friday night. Fresno, California, police officer Bret Hutchins and his two partners are checking on a burglary call. The 911 caller reported somebody broke into a garage and they can hear them banging around inside. The officers are having a hard time finding the burglary when their police radios come alive. Dispatch puts out the call of shots fired with a male victim down. ABC News was riding along on this night. As the officers sprint back to their patrol SUVs, we ask, "What's going on?" After advising dispatch that he is responding, Hutchins says, "Victim of shooting, let's go." We jump in, slamming the patrol doors as Hutchins hits his lights and sirens and we scream off to the growling sound of the Ford Police Interceptor giving what seems like all of its horsepower. Speeding through the streets of Fresno, onlookers standing to get into clubs watch and take pictures as we zoom by with sirens blaring to the latest act of violence in the city. On the police radio, another responding officer asks, "Did anybody see him get shot?" Dispatch relays that the caller found the man down. As we pull up to the scene, Hutchins says aloud to himself the license plate numbers of every car pulling out to memorize them in case they could be a suspect fleeing the area who they will need to track down.
