Chandler Mall Shootout

Well, Kathy and I had a little excitement today. While staying at our sons place here in Gilbert AZ we decided to go over to the Chandler Mall and do a little shopping and then take in lunch and a movie. We got the shopping done but shortly after we ordered lunch the announcement came over the mall PA system that everyone had to evacuate the mall immediately, so out we went. We got stuck in the truck in the parking lot for a couple of hours before we got to leave. In the mean time we got to watch the Swat Teams in action, they were running right by us in full combat gear headed for the mall. We even had the sniper team run by us on the way in. It was quite an exciting day for us.

I seen that on the news and was wondering just how close any MOCer’s might be to that. I’m certainly glad that everything turned out ok for you. Things in life can happen really fast and escalate very quickly; one never knows when they are going to be involved in something unexpected.

See, you saved the price of a movie (no small sum these days) and still had some entertainment...talk about the "luck of the Irish!" On a serious note, glad you were not harmed.

Holy Cow! Glad you got out in time. Those SWAT teams are pretty impressive. We had one outside our house once when the guy across the street took his mother and aunt hostage and then shot a police dog that came in after him. He did not surrender, so you know the result.
