 Posted: 03/22/03 - 22:10 Post subject: police helicopter just landed in our neighbor's yard
Let me follow up that statement by saying we live in a nice neighborhood, so this is out of the ordinary. The thing just set down in the middle of their field and an officer jumped out and started running for the creek, gun drawn  . Then another cop jumped out, whistled for the first one and waved him back. They both jumped back in their chopper and flew away.
This is the field I sometimes take my horses over to play in. I wonder if they would have landed their if there had been animals in the field? That would have sent my poor Henry into another time zone.

Was there a C*O*P*S camera crew around?
Was the prep wearing a shirt?
Keep us updated.

Never saw a perp, that was the weird thing. I think they were playing Silly Buggers.

Sounds to me like someone gave them the wrong coordinates.

Nope. Nothing medical about an overweight officer with a big @ss gun running through a field.

SOmeone obviously stole a GPS calibrater and reset it to send the cops to the wrong area!

They could land in my back yard but the rotors would hit the swing set
If that were around here I could find out what they were looking for

There was not mention of anything on our woefully pathetic local internet news (but did you know the Americans are bombing BAGHDAD?? just kidding). My hubby installs the radios, lights and sirens in the RCMP vehicles around here and he says there is enough dope stuffed in the seats to fuel a frat party. Maybe they all just finished cleaning out their cars, if you know what I'm saying? Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more, eh?

Wait, you mean they've named an animal after one of the X-Men? Too cool!
