abracanabraI was out weeding today, with some hopes of attracting a person in need of cash who wanted to mow our lawn. Instead, this is what I observed.
There is an apartment building at the other end of the block and kitty-corner from us. I kept hearing voices of some sort, and I couldn't figure out why. I kept glancing over there. Finally, I saw the cause of the commotion.
A man brandishing two machetes rounded the apartment building. "I'm trying not to hurt you," he hollered at the woman who was pursuing (and yelling at) him. "See," gesturing to the small crowd gathering on the sidewalk, "you all are witnesses. I'm trying not to hurt her."
I was about to go call the cops when a squad car pulled up. That is the only time I've seen policemen pursue somebody at a run with their own guns drawn.
The coalition of teenage mothers out for a stroll afterward said the man and the woman had been married for several years.
