Today evening has perhaps been the most eventful evening in my 5 years in Boston. we happened to witness a police encounter with almost 10-15 gun shots. Three robbers dodging the police after theft from a local bank tried entering our apartment to escape. Not successful here, they ran to the main road and stopped a passing car in an attempt to escape. In just a few seconds, they were surrounded by police and one of the guys i saw escaping from our apartment was shot in the head. He died on the spot and another one was caught. One of the robbers tried to escape and was suspected to be hiding in the vicinity. The whole area was filled with about 30 cop cars, 10 helicopters, k-9 units, state troopers and SWAT teams. They managed to get the guy, although the police suspect there could be more accomplices to this robbery. 5 hours of this excitement and the adrenalin levels haven't dropped!. The robber's car is still in our apartment. I saw the car enter and bang another one. Within seconds i saw the guys flee from the scene (each of them carried a gun). and the next minute, the shooting starts. Wow! The K-9 units are still here and the search continues! It was like watching a live episode of law & order!
A day to remember indeed!
