Neighborly disturbance update II.
Sep. 20th, 2006 11:47 amMichael woke me up at 6:40 this morning so that he could put Alex into bed with me while he called the police. Downstairs they were shouting, and he heard the sound of someone knocking - or being knocked - into furniture.
The police officer came to our door first. Michael told him what he'd heard, and that the neighbors appeared to have a history of domestic violence. We heard the cop go to the downstairs entrance and knock. A few seconds later he came back up, sat in his car for a minute or two (Me: "Maybe he's running the address to pull up their history?"), and then drove away. I don't know if he even spoke to them, or if they didn't answer the door and he just left.
