Thread: Wondering why there are so many police on my street...

I spent the night at my girlfriend's last night and go straight to work. Come home early around 3 and notice there are police all around, which wouldn't be the first time but that is another story. I see a bunch of parents waiting for the school bus so think nothing of it. So I am playing BF4 and I get a text saying 'There was an explosion on your street?!'. Google my street and explosion....

Old man had oxygen tanks in his townhouse on my street... guess the place caught fire and they blew up. Guy didn't get out. I didn't even notice the burnt building. This is the second neighbor killed tragically. The other one was beat to death with a blunt object for not paying rent... surprisingly I live in the nice part of the metro DC area...
