Recall I used to house sit in Palm Harbor for two realtors. One had been in the CIA before that and the other was a retired Lt. Commander in the Navy. Anyway they lived with one cop two doors down on one side and four doors down on the other.
They heard a lot of noise one night and went to see what the commotion was. There had been a late night armed robbery and the cops chased the culprits throughout Palm Harbor and the pair abandoned their car and fled on foot and climbed a wall right next to these realtors' home. Between these two cops' houses. Got on their next door neighbor's house via the fence. And were pinned on there with a police helicopter spotlight on them.
They threw their pistol or one of them away and the next time I came over to house sit the woman of that house told me to look for the pistol in their garden in case they missed it on the first examination of their back yard. They had a jungle of trees and bushes back there.
A junior high school was within a block or so where all this happened. I used to pick up my nephew from that junior high school on occasion when the were spending the weekend with us which happened frequently.
Thank God I was not house sitting when this happened as I would have NOTHING but pooped their bed.
As far as I know the gun was never found. Or one of them.
