Bad Boys, bad boys, what cha going to do? By Pepper and Wendell

Today's morning started off like a Cops! episode. 

All my brother and I wanted to do was go outside, take a leak, sniff a few trees and maybe catch up with a few of our dog friends.  Instead, we found ourselves apparently in the middle of a drug bust.

So, we were doing our normal walk around the Civic Center, Ballet and City Hall.  (Picture below.)

There was a sketchy looking kid standing right about where the steps can be viewed on the picture.  My mom was nervous because he had his hood wrapped around his head.  She made sure he saw that she was aware of him and kept walking.  Sketchy looking people are not out of place here, but for some reason my mom thought he was sketchier than most!

I was not worried.  Mr. Wendell and I are trained lethal attack Chihuahuas and we would have gone ninja on his ass if he tried anything!  We would have bit his ankles til they bled!

Anyways...we started walking towards the condo which is about two blocks away.  All of a sudden we heard a commotion and then the kid came tearing by us.  He was looking over his shoulder like someone was chasing him.  Probably, because there was!  My mom was not sure if he was running from a gang or what...

Seconds after the kid ran by, my mom's sleeve got brushed by a big guy in chase of the kid.  He caught up with the kid quickly.  Tackling him while pulling his gun and cuffs out at about the same time!  My mom was amazed.  7:00 in the morning is too early for this kind of stuff.

The oddest part of this?  There was an old, badly dressed drag queen sitting on the steps reading right in front of the tackling and cuffing site.  The guy (?)  did not even look up...as if this kind of thing happens every day.  In contrast, my mom had a "What the ****?" expression on her face!!!

Just another day in urban paradise!  The rest of the day was boring in contrast!
