Reporting

I know an on-the-scene witness to this story about a police standoff. Other little details not in the story include: 4 families having regular violent arguments, attempts to intimidate the police, police and sheriffs and child protective service officers all around, police patrolling all around all the buildings past 1am, police still on the scene into Wednesday afternoon, and a general sigh of relief when the violent pit bull ate lead. (Yes, it was one of those trained to be violent--sorry, pit fans.) This iceberg has a lot below the water, and we'll probably never hear the whole story. But we can guess the shape pretty well.
