XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX THURSDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1999 14:01:55 ET XXXXX
LOS ANGELES USING SATELLITE TRACKING TO CATCH Y2K SHOOTERS
Los Angeles police are planning to use satellite tracking to thwart troublemakers on New Year's Eve!
L.A. county sheriff Lee Baca says new technology from the Department of Defense will help track people who fire guns into the air to celebrate the holiday.
The new system, according to officials, will pinpoint gunfire using audio sensors and a global positioning satellite system.
A government entity using a satellite to track citizens is a controversial new development in American law enforcement procedures.
