Hilarious story last night on KCRA about police action in a South Sacramento neighborhood after construction crews reported shots fired. Miguel Almaguer reported that the police response consisted of a “small army” of SWAT teams and his producers stopped short of including stock footage of Nazi storm-troopers. Miguel’s spin? As it turns out, the police resources were wasted on something as harmless as… guns being fired randomly in the direction of people. The link is considerably toned down from the broadcast version, unfortunately.

So I’m curious, Miguel. How many police officers should it take to subdue 5 armed men in their own home? One? Two? Five? I think the Sac PD would appreciate your sage advice.
