Not actually a crime...BUT
I work from my home office and after a busy day, flogging the phones, I called it a day and was settling in for a little Call of Duty III, shooting Germans for the Greater Good and all. So my Brother comes over to the house and as the front door was unlocked, he comes in and walks through the house to my office and comes in with this amazed look on his face.

He asks me what I am doing and I said: "Killin' Nazi's of course!"

His response: Dude, the SWAT team is parked in the driveway out front! Literally!

I walked to my front window and gazed out to see large men in semi-police looking uniforms, donning body armor and packing sub-machine guns. I nearly shat myself.

They were using my driveway as a staging area for a raid on one of my Neighbor's houses. Apparently, one of my Neighbors, who was a POLICE OFFICER, was living with a guy who was dealing CRACK out of their house!

So, being the nosy twit that I am, I threw on my flip flops and headed up the street to where all the action was 'going down'. The cops did NOT like that and several of them saw to it to illustrate the error of my ways. I protested and said "Listen, if I can give up my goddamned driveway to you guys so you can stage for this little raid, YOU can give me a little info."

Surprisingly, they complied and told me the whole story! I even got to stand there and look on disapprovingly as they escorted the couple out of the house, neatly accessorized with matching stainless steel bracelets!

A win for the Rozzers!

Cheers,
Citadel
