Why is it that I seem to be in the center of chaos? I was just sitting here watching Three Wishes, then all of a sudden a hear police sirens in between the cheers and the roar of the crowd at the Helix High football game. I pay no attention, since sirens are common occurances in the big city…then I hear a few more…and a few more…pretty soon, they are coming from all around. I see three cars with lights fly down University. Then a few more. Easily, there had to have been a over dozen cars converging on the high school and surrounding area.

All of this is going on, mind you, during the fireworks show.

From what I can deduce at this point, it seems there was some sort of incident at the game and the cops are now setting up a perimeter around the area. They need to get everyone out without disturbing the crime scene; I can only imagine that someone might have gotten shot or worse.

I’ll find out the scoop and let you know. After all, a good reporter does that.

**Update**
10:18pm – Well, I just checked with my dad, who I asked to monitor the police frequency, and it appears that it was a gang-related shooting. Sheriff’s deputies, San Diego Police, La Mesa Police, and K-9 units from these agencies have been dispatched to the high school and to this apartment complex on Normal. SWAT is being dispatched, as we speak, to the apartments; seems a woman from the complex approached police and informed them that she had left her apartment unlocked and when she went back to her apartment the deadbolt was locked. So they now believe they have the two suspects in this apartment.

Officers at the high school reported that there were three victims involved. Two are en-route to the hospital; the third, unfortunately, did not make it.

More info to come…

If you’re in San Diego, I’m sure you’ve heard about the dramatic events at an apartment near SDSU involving some innocent sorority girls and a bunch of bad guys with guns.

If you haven’t, look here.

Now, you know I’d be the first one on the scene to help a damsel in distress. But it turns out another nice guy beat me to it…my flat-foot roommate, Danny. He was on-scene, gun drawn, ready for action. Although his account was slightly different than the media’s story, it’s still interesting…and exciting…all at the same time.

Truth is, it wasn’t even at a sorority. Who knows if the girls were even in a sorority? All we know is that they were probably hot…therefore, the word “sorority” makes it all the more dramatic.

Anyway, just thought I would brag on Dan’s behalf. The nerdery continues.
