The Police are Everywhere

About an hour ago, a police helicopter arrived right over my house along with a bunch of police cars. The helicopter was hovering around and pointing its spotlight at someone on the other side of the street. As the police cars rolled in, the helicopter began to use a megaphone to tell everyone to return to their houses. It then began to tell whoever the police were after to get down on the ground. It was certainly a surprising sight. Rocklin is not exactly known for its crime and to see a police helicopter over your house yelling down orders certainly makes the day...unique. There are a ton of rumors going around as to what happened, but as for now, none of them have been confirmed. I've been looking at a bunch of local news cites but they don't seem to have been updated. There should be some explanations tomorrow that will solve the mystery of this incident and explain what exactly is going on.

Some dumba$$ was waving a gun around. No one was shot, killed, or injured in any way. It was only overzealous cops, is all.

I not only was watching the news last night which covered that event, but I also work with the City of Rocklin and it was mentioned at a meeting yesterday. Basically an intoxicated Roseville Police Officer who lives in Rocklin was outside on his front lawn in the late afternoon waving a gun at some people. Turns out he was urinating on his lawn in front of his neighbors as well. Either way, the problems solved now. Kind of unfortunate that a police officer committed such a preventable act, but then again, there are people like that in all professions. If it’s being a cop, doctor, priest, teacher, there found everywhere. Luckily, nothing got out of hand. Thank you Rocklin PD for keeping another night safe! Great job!!!
