I heard shots

This morning before work, I was walking my dog outside and heard a bunch of pops (sounded like fireworks) and then a whole lot of sirens. I went in and checked out the news and there was a police standoff and shooting less than a mile away. Does anyone have a bullet proof jacket they're not using?

Just get a gun that shoots further and you can take care of things before the bad guy gets that close.

Sorry, no jacket, but your story reminded me of something that happened about 20 years ago.
I was washing my car in one of those do it yourself bays, and a loud wind squeal and explosion happened close to me - it made me drop to my knees! I walked out seconds later to see a ball of flames buried in the wall of some nearby apartments, and a greenish-white parachute descending from above into the pine trees around the corner.
It was a jet from Dobbins Air Force Base that had crashed within a block of me. I'll never forget it. It was LOUD!
