Welcome to the neighborhood

Yesterday afternoon my mom called to tell us that we couldn’t really get in to the neighborhood because the swat SERT team was there.

huh?

Well, after an alleged car theft, alleged liquor store holdup, and alleged high speed chase, three teens abandoned an allegedly stolen car and allegedly hid in the bushes in our neighborhood. My mom discovred SERT officers in her back yard and decided she ought to check the news for details instead of going out to ask them what was going on. Outside the front of the house? An armored vehichle with a man sitting in a turret.

Whoop Whoop!

After the alleged 3 were caught, we were allowed back in to the neighborhood, though our street was roped off until around 8pm. The officers stationed outside our house joked with us, and my mom even got pictures of Ella with the two cops by their place as a momento.

Despite the 3rd event in as many weeks, we’re constantly told the neighborhood isn’t really this bad. We know it isn’t, and it’s been rather funny.

One thought on “Welcome to the neighborhood”

  1. Maybe it’s the quality of the new neighbors that just moved into that neighborhood three weeks ago…did you ever think about that : )
