Devices are installed where shootings are frequently reported by civilians.
The shootings are usually gang related, not at the police, so I don't see how your theory of heightened policing causes a loop.
The best way to protect the innocent civilians in the area is to increase surveillance and police presence.
Removing police presence is a disservice to the people who are victims of the gang violence in the area. Those people are the ones who call the police and want them there.
Only if you remove the police in areas do you get a feedback loop (no protection, so you join a gang for protection, which leads to more gang violence)

I am not proposing to do anything. I just described a possible mechanism for how additional policing can lead to additional incarceration, aside from homicide and attempted murders.
