Freaking Out ...

[texchan]

OK. I'm freaking out just a little. The street in front of our house (a fairly major, busy street) is full of police vehicles. There are more police cars and SUVs with flashing lights than I can count. Not to mention two mobile command units and a SWAT team vehicle. And men wearing body armor and carrying automatic weapons. And EMS vehicles.

They have the street in front of our house totally blocked off. I'm not sure how far down it goes, as my view is limited.

Ack!

Well, they were parked there for several hours. Then they left. I watched the news that night, but didn't see anything. I didn't see anything in the paper today, either. But we looked up a police blog on the internet, which said the police had cornered an armed bank robber in one of the houses not that far up the street from us. I guess that's why they were all here and had the whole road shut down. Yikes!

I'm just glad everything ended without much incident. Still -- maybe a little too much excitement for me for one day. >.O
