Hmmm… something is going down here in downtown Houston – there are at least six news helicopters hovering overhead. Unfortunately, there isn’t any information on the Houston Chronicle or KHOU or KPRC sites yet to clue me in.
It’s a bit unsettling to see all of these helicopters just sitting there. What do I do? I grab my camera, of course! (I’ll post the photo tonight.)
Update: It was a high-speed chase of a stolen car that ended in downtown when they slammed into another car at McKinney and Smith. They tried to flee on foot, but they were caught, in part thanks to a bystander that helped. “He threw a forearm to the suspect as the suspect ran by him,” said HPD Officer James Price. “He fell into the scaffolding and that’s when I was able to catch him. He helped out tremendously.” (from the KHOU website.)

KHOU and KPRC are now reporting that there was a little bit of a high speed chase going on. Nice weather for a drive I suppose.
Oh yes, the weather is gorgeous today – clear crisp blue skies, low temps for Houston – I walked about 8 blocks at lunch and didn’t even break a sweat! Now if only it could be like this for the rest of the summer…
someone clothes-lined the guy as he ran past?? Mmmwwahhhhhhhhh!!!!! 😀 gotta love it when the bad guys lose and the good guys get their man!
hmmm, my hubby didn’t even call me to tell me this. i’m sure i’ll get an earful when we get home.
Wow. That’s about a block away from here. Man – wish I’d seen the copters.
