                        … and the cops go wizzing by …

The last time I saw this many cops was a few years ago when the bank our
company was above was being robbed.* [1] This time however, about two dozen
cop cars (at least, maybe more) just flew by our office, sirens blaring and
turned right at the corner into one of the many commercial parks in this
section of Boca Raton, Florida [2]. I figure we'll hear about it on the news
later tonight, tomorrow at the latest.

* [3] It was a Friday afternoon in '98 or '99 when the building we were in
was surrouded by Boca's Finest. Shortly afterwards, the SWAT (Special Weapons
And Tatics) team showed up, and took positions around the building. A police
officer managed to make it up the back stairs to our office and told us to
keep the door locked. After a few tense hours the suspect was arrested—it
turned out he was an escaped mental patient.
