| | Shots Fired - Suspect May Be Dead | | This is going on outside our office window. A bank robber's getaway car was rammed by a police car. Guns were drawn, shots were fired. The person in the car doesn't seem to be moving and the cops are walking around, grinning and shaking one another's hands.
I know it's a bank robber cause I called the paper to see what the scanner was saying. I have to rely on the word of others that there is a still body in the car. I'm too nearsighted to see it.

I hope you're snapping photos. There could be a bonus from the paper in it for you!

| | Re Shots Fired - Suspect May Be Dead | | I let the newspaper folks in here cause we had a better view than they could get from outside cause of the crime scene tape and such. The photographer got some shots, but won't be able to use them because you can see the body.
Apparantly, this was a multi-county chase. I was the first person to tell the paper that the robber was probably dead. A wee bit more interesting than a stained glass window, eh?

| | Re Shots Fired - Suspect May Be Dead | | I think you should be getting the paper's Employee of the Month award, hands down.

| | Re Shots Fired - Suspect May Be Dead | | Wowza. That's worse than what happened on our street - a couple blocks down some idiot running from the police smashed his car into a tree. But nobody got shot!

You can also see that the shots were taken with a Motorola cell phone.
Somebody's gotta buy that photographer a real camera.
