About Last Night

So there was a robbery in our neighborhood last night. Hence the helicopter. There were also dogs out searching until around 1:00. My husband was finally able to get home going the back way (odd the police didn't think about that). A little after midnight, we started getting these automated messages telling us to stay inside and lock all our doors. Really makes you feel secure, huh? Then, at 1:30 we got another message saying that "apparently" the suspect had left the area (read, okay we didn't catch him, we've searched a long time folks, we're going home to bed). I mean, the search light was powerful, but there are a lot of places to hide, even from the dogs. But everyone here is all right, except for the neighbor who was robbed, of course.
