I won't get too deeply into this for the sake of my neighbor and her privacy, but yesterday afternoon, we had three police cars, two fire trucks, and an ambulance at the house across the street.

Oh, God. These kids don't even live NEXT to us. There's one house up the street and two down at the other end.

I think at least one or two of the kids may live on the street BEHIND us, because we found a ladder against our fence on that side of the yard, like they were going to try to climb in.
