So tonight we went to Target for a couple things. We're walking back out to the car...one cop, tow cops....we drive away..two more cops, another, and yet another. So...we turned around and went back to Target. Had to check out the action. They were conveniently situated all around the parking lot, side streets, and even a neighborhood entrance. Seth ran back in to get drinks...Anders snacked on cereal. It was a great night. After about 20 minutes of watching...one by one, the cop cars moved toward the store entrance. And then we hear "put your hands up" over the speaker.
Quick back track to when were in Target...we're walking through an aisle and we were completely cut-off by a man who was clearly on a mission with his shopping cart. Good thing Anders was on daddy's shoulders at the time. Both of us made "pardon me" and "don't mind us" comments to let him know we thought he was rude, but he didn't acknowledge us. Forgot about him.
Forgot about him until we'd been sitting in the car for a good 15 minutes waiting for the bad guy to come out. When Seth went back in to get drinks, he asked the clerk what the deal was...she said they'd had a few "instances" recently so that's probably why. We are smarter than that...why would 6 cop cars sit around Target...is there really nothing better to do? So..then this guy pops back into our minds. We're thinking...maybe he's the guy.
Okay...now back to "hands behind your head..." We're excited to finally see some action. We put Anders back in his carseat, happened to drive up towards the doors to get a better view...and sure enough, there's that same guy.
That was our Sunday night action. It was fun while it lasted, but good thing it didn't last much longer. We were getting bored waiting.
Now, if only the cops could catch our bike thieves.
