Around here, the sheriff's dept. have a website that list current active calls... if you have something similar in your area, it might give you some clue to what is going on. But ours don't get updated in real time and they don't list all calls. A police scanner might give more accurate information but is often hard to understand with all the codes that they use and the audio quality can be really bad.
