Neighbour dead. Murder suspected Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

The house 4 down the road from me is cordoned off and police were questioning everyone entering the estate last night. It turns out they'd found the body of the man who lived there, and they're conducting a murder enquiry.

That's way too close to home for comfort.

Twelve years ago I moved into the Chicago neighborhood of Uptown. The next morning, I looked out the window to discover the whole street clogged with police and fire engines. Apparently the building next door had a small fire.

What happene is that the police were called to invetigate the rape of a twelve-year-old girl, saw smoke rising from the basement, and tcalled the fire department. After the fire was out, they discovered the bodies of an elderly couple. The fire had been set to cover their murder.

Welcome to Uptown. (We moved there because my roomates were afraid that Roger's Park was a dangerous neighborhood. )

When I lived in Longsight, Manchester there were 3 fatal shootings within the estate I lived in during the year i stayed there. All of them were drive by drug-related shootings and as such did not have to much to do with me, and didn't hit home that much as I would imagine someone being killed in their home would do.

The car that got torched outside my bedroom window was slightly scarier.

Once a person (criminal mastermind, former boxer) was shot when he just came out of the cafeteria at the other side of the street. He was shot from balcony of the building near my building and later the killer escaped through courtyards of buildings, so probably through my courtyard also...
I've heard shot (then I thought it was an explotion) and later scream of a man in a middle of the night. In that night there were many police sirens to be heard. Later I read in the newspaper that this criminal mastermind (Remigijus Daðkevièius was his name) was shot in that cafeteria, which is just near my house. I wasn't however able to watch scene after murder because the street is narrow and my windows are high and also covered by roof...
After few days a police officer was visiting flats near the crime scene and asking what people heard...

If this was an area like St Pauls it wouldn't be so surprising. In a seriously quiet and sleepy coastal town it's a lot more unexpected.

I knew the bloke by looks- said "Hello" a few times. Couldn't tell you his name or anything.

You guys sure live in rough areas.

The closest thing I've experienced to a major crime is some ***** tried to break into a friend's house, and the alarm went off so nothing happened.

The closest I ever came to the law was when I broke into this building looking for… stuff… but then the alarm sounded and the **** hit the fan. I managed to hide in the ventilation shaft until the heat died down. :whew:
Sorry to hear about the neighbor Laz… I at least always follow the rule "no women, no kids".

I lived two apartments down from a place that the Chandler, AZ P.D. shot up while trying to catch some jewel theives.

Totally amateur hour... they had three guys trapped in the apartment and the place surrounded, so three of their swat guys decide to rush the place like Charles Bronson... one cop died, and all three "suspects" were riddled with bullets.

Oh, and the apartment was being rented by a friend of mine... everything of value that she owned was shot (TV, appliances, computer, stereo, etc.)
