[brief] [...] testified that at 6:54 p.m. on January 22, 2020, he and his partner [...] were on Magnolia Avenue at the traffic light at Jackson and Magnolia when they heard gunshots from the direction of Jackson and Bond (one block northeast), and they turned right onto Jackson to approach the scene.  (2T 51-22 to 53-1)  He testified that as they got “about a quarter way through the block” on Jackson, he saw “an individual wearing a light-colored hoody running across the street and making his way towards this rear yard” that adjoins rear yards on the next street to the west: Madison Avenue.  (2T 53-14 to 22)  Gonzalez also claimed that when they drove further down the block, he saw what appeared to be a “plume of gun smoke” closer to the intersection of Jackson and Bond.  (2T 54-21 to 55-2)  He admitted, however, that he wrote no report and that the report written by his partner made no mention of a plume of smoke.  (2T 114-18 to 20; 2T 118-4 to 16)  Gonzalez testified, over objection of defense counsel,\(^3\) that he found “it suspicious that someone would choose to run through rear yards” to avoid the shooting scene, “as opposed to seeking shelter, whether it’s inside the businesses” on Jackson, or inside a “house. ”  (2T 55-9 to 16)  Gonzalez specifically said that he “suspect[ed] that that individual had just been involved with the shooting” and that the person was armed.  (2T 57-18 to 19; 2T 65-9 to 11)  However, he admitted on cross that “multiple people” were running from the shooting scene at the time he and his partner pulled up, but, he claimed, only the one man was running into the backyards across the street on Jackson.  (2T 149-14 to 23)  Gonzalez then made his way into the rear yards on Jackson and Madison, while [...] “proceeded [on foot] to the right [i.e., east] side of Jackson Avenue towards the barbershop. ”  (2T 57-4 to 25)  Gonzalez also radioed into headquarters that he was in pursuit of a person wearing a light-colored hoody and that backup units should be sent to “Madison, Jackson, Mag[nolia]. ”  (2T 58-1 to 64-7)  Gonzalez testified that at that time he was not able to make his way through the backyards of Jackson and Madison, so he went to the barbershop, where he saw the victim receiving treatment.  (2T 74-4 to 12; 2T 76-4 to 11)  By \(^3\) This issue is addressed more in Point II, infra. this time, just “a couple of minutes” after his radio broadcast, Gonzalez testified, “basically any available law enforcement personnel” had set “perimeters” around the general area and “anything believed to be part of a crime scene was being secured. ”  (2T 76-18 to 23)  Thereafter, just after 7 p.m., Gonzalez went to Madison Avenue to follow what he perceived to be the route of the person wearing the light-colored hoody.  (2T 78-15 to 22)  There, police searched the yards of properties at 427 and [...] that were adjoining one another, as well as adjoining the backyards of properties on Jackson, but they did not find any evidence of note at that time.  (2T 82-14 to 83-19)  Around that same time, Gonzalez learned that police had detained defendant, who was wearing a gray hoody, in the parking lot at [...], a business two blocks southwest of [...], at the three-way intersection of East Broad, Jefferson, and Magnolia.
