Another story: Tuesday 7/6/2010 - Taking my kids to summer camp. Stopped at the summer camp location, noticed a teenage girl in the parking area, near a car, looking at it and acting a little strange. Left my son (12) in the car while I check in the daughter to her school. Came back out and noticed the same girl in another strange area, taking pictures of the parking lot. Asked my son what he thought, he said she was taking pictures of the cars and other things.
She then proceeded to hang around the fence and gate at the school. I watched her for a few moments as I drove away.
It got to me, so I backed up and put the window down, asking her if she was dropping someone off or waiting for someone. "No". Ok do you work here? "No". "I went here, but I'm too old now." Ok, well you need to leave the premise. "Well, don't worry, I'm not going to kill anyone". She starts to walk away. Seems a little strange for you to be here. "That's what they always say..." ???? huh?
Ok, so I'm dialing LPD to have them check this suspicious subject out. So I follow her for several blocks until she stops at a local bus stop on a major route. I park and wait to see if LPD is going to show up.
Finally I flag an officer down and point her out. I tell my story, officer talks to the girl... Officer comes back and talks to me, apparently she's a "little slow" according to the officer, and she's "Afraid of me" ? Huh, I've done nothing but make minor contact and call 911 because she's talking about "not killing people" at a childrens summer camp that she has no business being around.
Anyway, all is good, I got them to contact her and make record of her being somewhere she probably shouldn't.
Ya just never know when or where you'll need to defend yourself or family.
(I was not ccw at the time, but it was reasonably accessible) Yeah yeah, I know, I should have been carrying.
