Citizen's Arrest

Like most people in the world, I hate cops.  Until recently I have cursed them every time I come across one. (Get off my back, you do too.) BUT lately...and when I say lately I mean like yesterday.... my roommates and I have gotten into this new thing of finding / fighting crime. Yesterday, to start off this new habit off right, we involved ourselves in a high speed chase.

High Speed Chase = 6 cop cars + 1 run away car + 2 patrolling officers later + us following.

I couldn't make this crap up if I tried. Who the heck comes across a high speed chase on their way home from QT?! We do.  That's who. Legit.

Also, guess who has a CB radio app that can tune into police scanners? This girl. Legit again.

We listened to that sucker / patrolled for an hour then decided the police didn't need our assistance so we just went home.  Better luck next time. (Thank you Apple for your iPhones that have awesome battery life and let me stalk the crap out of the surrounding neighborhoods. Preciate ya)  

THEN.... (the story continues)

Tonight we were just strolling around touring the ghetto (which is not a usual hobby for us but we're trying to diversify ourselves before we get out into the real world) and we come across nothing....

Now you're thinking: "Why the hell would she blog about nothing?" 

WELL..... So we drove around for an hour without finding anything then I begged, and I mean I had to freakin' beg, Taylor to take one last right turn down some sketch neighborhood. 

Guess who found an apartment on fire with tons of fire trucks and a police car?

Me. #winning

So we drive around the whole dang apartment complex, witness some sketch drug deals or something of the matter, then come around to the whole crime scene. I'm not sure if it was actually a "crime" per say but there was definitely a huge fire that they had just put out and like 7 fire trucks.

The pictures didn't come out as planned because apparently my iPhone can't really pick up flashing lights too well. (It started acting up when Steve Jobs died.)  After so many failed attempts we just packed up and went home. 

Two nights of police cars, sketch drama and CB radio calls makes for fun stories to tell my kids. Success.
