shit goes down in Davis Square

[hammercock.livejournal.com]

Tuesday afternoon I was walking up Grove St., which connects Highland and Elm, and this car turned up it just as I'd started up that way, followed by a stealth cop car.

The plainclothes cops inside then turned on its siren and dashboard police light, and pulled the car over. The cops yelled and drew guns as they approached the vehicle.

At that point I decided it was prudent to turn around and choose a different path home. :-}

It's weird, though. I have no idea what it was about, but it was not something I've ever witnessed in this neighborhood before.
