Wow ... another accident at the Intersection From Hell

Our street has filled up with emergency vehicles ... I counted 6 police cars, 2 ambulances and a fire truck. They've got the street all blocked off.

My guess is another accident at this horrific intersection a block away from us. It's a 4-way stop with very heavy traffic; the main street is a major thoroughfare, and the cross street is the main route for trucks going in and out of the Kraft foods plant. If it was a fire or something, there would be more fire trucks ... I guess it could be a drug raid or some such thing too (not unexpected in our neighborhood) but I don't know why they'd have so many other things besides police cars if that's the case ... maybe one ambulance, but I can't see the need for the rest.

Oh! Thanks!

I realized yesterday, after typing that entry, that it probably wasn't some sort of police raid anyway, because the vehicles had their sirens going when they got here, and I imagine if they were planning on arresting people, they would have made some effort to sneak up on them.
