A very California thing to do!

About 130am, I awoke to gunfire not too far from my bedroom window at my dad's house. There were 7 or so shots and then a plethora of police sirens and cars and a helicopter with a huge searchlight. This morning the main street was still blocked off by police with the caution tape. It looked like maybe a drive by shooting??!! Needless to say, I will be sleeping with my window closed for the rest of my visit no matter how hot it gets! Kind of funny that I have been concentrating on finding Indiana things to do before I left but when I come to California on vacation I experience a very stereotypical event!
