Neighborhood Murder

There was a murder a block from my house this weekend. A double murder, acutally. Stabbing.

It was a huge crime scene, with 23 cop cars present. (The Wisconsin State Journal counted "at least a dozen police vehicles".)

As I was standing around gawking with others, two people from the DA office came by, explained some of the details, and offered us counseling services.

The victims included a fifty-one year old white man and an unidentified black woman. Police are looking for a "person of interest".

Above, here are some of the cop cars. Below, the "Dane County Emergency Command Center." Didn't know we had one. Fortunately, it says, right there on the bottom left, that it was paid for by Homeland Security. In other words, "we didn't spend your local tax dollars on this Winnebago."


Update: I'm trying out a new feature called Filmloop. Click here to see all these pictures in a scrolling bar.
