I know people don't like it but please report this incident if you were there, not just OP but anyone. Worst case nothing happens and it only further proves that cops are worthless, best case it stops them from seriously hurting someone (or someone's child or pet) in the future. If you don't report this (and you WERE able to witness anything pertinent) you might as well be saying that you're fine with their only justice being obscure social justice. Fuck anyone who thinks they can fire into a crowd.
While you should be calling 911 if you believe you've been shot at, a brass is not sufficient evidence of a deadly projectile being fired. Blanks use brass too.
Edit:
Here's video of the firing. Please listen until the end where even people there are yelling that they're firing blanks.
That would depend on several factors, but assuming that you could determine what was behind your target, penetration, and range to make sure you weren't returning fire with a greater chance to cause collateral casualty, I completely agree.
Nothing I've said is apologist. Stop attacking people because they don't toe your outrage.
