What's Going On?
The recent shootings in Olney just leaves me shaking my head. Here? In Olney? I didn't even hear about the first shooting in Olney Mill until Tuesday. And as for the Monday afternoon one. Wow. 4:20 in the afternoon. I was on Emory Lane waiting to turn left on Georgia Avenue right about that time when I heard the wail of the police siren. First one, then two, three, an unmarked police car speeding towards our town. Maybe five in all. For some reason, after I turned I saw a bunch of police cars across from the fire station lights a flashing. I proceeded to the gym passing the McDonald's near the site of the shooting. And I was totally oblivious. Not until the next morning while listening to the radio did I heard about the shooting. What is going on? It's hard to just say these things happen and that no one or no town is immune. Immense kudos to Montgomery County Police for conducting their investigation and making an arrest. A town's condolences to the victims' families.
