... that ended right outside my office!
I was outside putting some stuff in my car when I heard sirens and then a loud car crash. I thought maybe someone had slowed down for a firetruck and had gotten hit. (My office is on the intersection of an expressway + a major street). Just then a guy on a full sprint barrels past me into our parking lot. I watch as he then heads over into the tree/bush area. I'm still walking toward the intersection when a young lady now runs into our lot and I can see the damaged car she came out of is still rolling down the street, sans occupants. :eyequiver She is quickly followed by a motorcycle cop who stops her with his gun drawn against the side of our building.
Meanwhile, the guy has come back into our lot about 150 feet further down the tree line and is quickly surrounded by multiple officers all with guns drawn. A bit later I'm asked to show where the guy ran into the bushes and if I saw him carrying or dropping anything. I did not, but they said they might bring the canine unit over to search. I'm assuming drugs are involved.
Wow, what a way to start the holiday weekend.
