We investigate this by studying ShotSpotter, a technology that automates gunfire detection. Following a detection, officers are dispatched to the scene, thereby reallocating their time. We leverage this shock to officers’ time allocation using the rollout of ShotSpotter across Chicago police districts to study the effects on 911 response. We find consequences for calls unrelated to gunfire—officers are dispatched slower (22%), arrive on-scene later (13%), and the probability of arrest is decreased 9%. Consequently, departments must evaluate their resource capacities prior to implementing technologies.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
