Good afternoon.
The Miami Police Dept. Investigative Intelligence Unit was unable to generate a report using the exact search criteria you provided.
Instead, they provided a report capturing all calls of service starting from the date you provided.
I checked the reports for Signal 47 calls for service (bomb threats) and found the data below.
Be advised the department does not seem to have a call signal specifically designated for "Active Shooter" based on a review of the aforementioned spreadsheets.
If you wish to obtain the reports for the listed incidents, feel free to submit a new request with the report numbers that are shown in the last column.
