My cool story:

I interested the police enough in my neighborhood that 5 squad cars and a K-9 unit ended up outside of my house at 2AM. I had been shooting off fireworks in the middle of the street with my friends (we were all 15-16 years old at the time). Anyways we saw the sirens flashing and ran back to the nearest house, which happened to be mine. None of the officers must have seen us run into my house, because i didn't hear anyone knocking on the door. My parents never woke up, and we filmed it all with my friends video camera from my basement window. They patrolled the neighborhood for almost an hour after, during which time one of my friends ran back outside to set off some more.

It seems like a lot of police cars for what was probably just a disturbance complaint. Why would they bring out all of that police muscle? I still don't know why.
