Unusual Coincidence and Sad Turn of Events
X-posted to 
Here's the link to a tragic story about a 17-year old girl that got murdered in Downtown LA.
Here's the Timeline:
4:52 p.m.: Samuel exited the driver's-side door of Burk's Volvo at 458 S. Alameda St. in downtown L.A.
5:25 p.m.: LAPD officers saw Samuel on 3rd Street drinking beer and in possession of a crack pipe. He was arrested.
I WAS THERE! Strange but true. I remember because we (Chris and I) were walking down 3rd Street, looking for Little Tokyo. We had left the Metro Station on 1st Street and I was lost. I know it was after 5pm because we were heading to Oiwake Bar and happy hour started at 5pm. Chris pointed out to the mounted officers and said, "They must be LAPD, they ride on horseback." We walked by the guy, I remember he looked strange. Chris remembered the officer looking at a credit card (his observation and memory skills are amazing) and it must've been the dead girl's credit card! Then they handcuffed him.
We didn't even realize it was the guy from the article until last night! Wow. Such a strange feeling to have witnessed that, so sad, yet at the same time, so weird.
