All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
No joke. There were at least 10 cop cars out there, seemingly to arrest 1 guy. It may have been the end of a car chase. What caught my attention was the testosterone laden chorus of "Hands up" and some scattered cursing. The local news sources never have anything quickly at night. Hm, maybe twitter...

Because books.

Where do you live?! Weren't you the one hearing gunfire, too?
It's worrying!

Well, I'm not in the parts of Chicago where the murder rate has been through the roof. Crime happens, but it's not a bad neighborhood. Honestly, I heard more gunfire growing up in Kansas City (and less when I lived in Detroit).

Good lord, aurelia! It's over and quiet now, right? That does sound like the end of a car chase we had here a while back: three sheriff's depts and a couple of CHP cars converging in our cul de sac.
Yay Field Museum and pizza!
ION: tonight's LA Complex is new, or new to the US, anyway.

The guy was in cuffs pretty quickly. It seems to be down to one unmarked car, probably waiting for a tow truck to impound the arrested guy's car.

Well, I hope this leads to fewer incidents of official knocks on your door when you are not dressed to receive visitors, at least.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Aurelia, I find you astonishingly calm about all that.

Yeah, Chicago's already passed the 250 mark for murders this year. Are we number one? I probably don't want to know the answer to that.

-t, that made me laugh.
Zen, it was certainly a bit of excitement, but I never felt like I was in any danger. I did wait until the shouting stopped before I approached the window. I guess I'm just a urban kid. This is my world.
