Had a much-needed day off (the calm before the storm that starts tomorrow), so I took care of a few errands, specifically some bank stuff and getting vitamins at Wal-Mart.
On my way back, I had lunch at the Dunkin Donuts here in town. And as I walked in, this teenaged couple at a table in the back were arguing noisily. I wasn't sure, but I heard a sound like someone's face getting slapped. One of the clerks behind the counter went for the phone, and within the time it took for my order to arrive, a police car and a plain wrapper (unmarked vehicle with a dome light in the back window) pull up, followed by a third police car, all with their lights going like mad (it's a small, quiet town: anything that happens usually winds up looking like the Crime of the Century for the sheer amount of police cars that show up). First a plain clothes cop steps in and assesses the situation, asking a few questions of two girls who'd seen everything that went on. Then the two uniformed cops come in, one a younger guy with a crew cut, the other an older fellow with a white mustache.
