Hostage crisis on my street

[lepage]

My wife came home last night and asked me what was going on down the street. I had no clue so I went outside to see the entire neighborhood on the sidewalk rubbernecking. Down 6 houses from us was what looked liked the entire North Port Police Dept. with the Swat team.

My street has seen a lot of violence over the years for some reason.Who needs to watch "COPS" on tv when I can just look out my front door.

That is a bit nerve-wracking. Hope there is a way to turn the downturn for the area around.
