Alas, there are some cities and neighborhoods where there will probably be several shootings. They usually come on the weekends and they usually come when the weather allows people to be outside. So it shouldn't be hard to write such an algorithm.
That being said, it's not exactly like the pre-crime work of Philip K. Dick. The cities are big enough and the background rate of shooting is high enough, that it's pretty much predictable. But that doesn't mean we know which street or which person.

He sold it, got a different old truck. Equally beat up looking, but different style. Problem stopped. Something about it just set police off.
