A little background....for the last few years, we have had some really fun neighbors at a two family across the street. They have all lived upstairs, and have never let us, the diligent fire alarm crew, down when it came to mid summer police raids, drug deals and other assorted highjinx. Bloods, Crips, all the kids over there are supposedly hitched up with one or the other.
Last year, one "resident" here was run over. Twice. At the same time. Now, my take on that one is once is an accident, twice is a message. That was done over some sort of deal.....what kind, well, stake your own opinion- gone bad. Luckily (unluckily?), the dude survived and walked out of the hospital a few days later.
This years events have started a bit early. We have had gang wars about 500 yards down the street at Burger King, possibly involving our friends. The late night honking and partying has begun. Its just a matter of time until things really heat up over there.

The other day, in fact, in the middle of the day when 90% of the population is working, my boss called up and told me that the little blond chick across the street was yelling at him from the porch to call the cops because her boyfriend was beating her up. Of course, beig the good citizens we are, we called, then sat back for the fun to begin. As you can see by the photos, Mr. Boyfriend of the week was arrested, I would have to assume for some sort of domestic charge.


Of course, the next night, the party was back on, with about 15 of them hangin' on the porch and driveway, hooting and hollering, and blasting that fine, fine music.
Good thing none of them had jobs to be at!!!
