Small World.....Long Story!
So a couple of weeks ago my in-laws' truck was stolen! It was parked right in front of my house. The truck was there when I got up early to go the gym and by the time I came home it was gone! So, of course, Shirley files a police report and does all of the necessary paperwork. Well a few weeks go by and now it's Sunday morning (Oct. 12th), Eric & I had driven home from Texas on Saturday so we were sleeping in a little when the phone rings....it's the Derby Police Dept....they asked if Shirley had been informed that her vehicle had been "recovered"... I told them I would have her call them back when she got home from church. Well about an hour after that (plenty of time has passed that I've pretty well forgotten about all that) my mom calls to make sure Eric & I made it home safely. (We had stopped by her house around midnight on our way home to pick up Alex since she had stayed with my mom while Eric & I were in Texas.) Then she proceeds to tell me about how she had heard sirens at 3 in the morning and at 4 her neighbor (my mom lives out in Peck on about 10 acres) calls to tell her that there are police officers in her front yard. So, of course, my mom goes out to find out what's going on. The police tell her to stay inside and lock the doors, they're looking for someone who had been involved in a car chase that had ran & hid in the tree row at the back of her property. Around 9am my mom was standing out on her deck and sees the guy walking out of the tree line, calls the cops and they come and arrest the guy. Well it turns out that the guy they arrested, that had been in a car chase with the cops, was driving my mother-in-law's truck! Of course he totaled the truck during the police chase which really stinks for my in-laws. Apparently the guy that was arrested was not the one who stole the truck but he's giving up names which, according to the police, is helping to break up a large ring of car thieves! I just couldn't believe how all of that transpired! What a small world!
