What a night.
I just got back from the Seattle Weblogger meetup and just as I get my shoes off I hear lots of gun fire off in the distance and squealing tires. A car rips through my apartment complex parking lot and there is massive police sirens that follows. Police lights filled my bedroom window as the police arrest two punk-ass gang-bangers at gun point right outside my God damn window.
It has been about twenty minutes since I heard the gun shots and I saw two guys arrested and the car searched. I overheard from the police radio in the cars parked right outside my bedroom that there was a drive by killing in the next apartment complex over. From what the cops just said on the radio there is still one gunman on foot that has yet to be caught. They had assault rifles and were all under 20 years of age. That is just swell.
I was going to write about some cool videogames or DVDs but I am slightly strung out at the current moment. I grabbed my digital camera and recorded a quicktime movie of the arrest. Good night.

Yikes! What neighborhood? Did you go outside or just tape it all through a window? Are you posting the video?

It is normally a nice neighborhood. I have not had any problems besides this. I watched the whole thing from my bedroom window. Nah I am probably not going to post it. I might upload some stills to my flickr account.

Cue the 'GTA made me do it' tripe.

Yeah. But you can't stop the car until you get to the pay and spray. Then you are home free.

Jake-
I know leaving comments is a crappy way to contact you, but I can't find your email address anywhere on any of your sites. Can you email me? I have a question about trackbacks.
Waiting to be deleted,
Justin

My contact info is on the FAQ for this site.
Sure what is your question? Yeah I know trackbacks are down on 8bitjoystick. I really need to update and fix the software.
