Normally, we hear sirens or see a fire and then social media explodes with guesses, questions, conspiracies, etc.
Last night was different.
There was a hostage situation down the road from me (literally 1.0 miles on my street). I read what was going on via Nextdoor.com from concerned neighbors warning people to stay away from the area. About 5 minutes later, a couple police cars sped by.
Let me reiterate that - I knew why the police were speeding by before they did so. That's new.
