Shoot Out Explained

I was working in an office in a discreet location based in a private house, my desk was in the window and I was quietly typing a letter; when I looked out of the window and saw a policeman crouched behind a bush with a gun in his hand.  Granted this mirage was in the garden next door and he indicated that I should ignore him – you try acting normal whilst being watched by an armed policeman.

To cut the story short, well I do not want to bore you; the house next door was occupied by squatters and whilst the policemen (there was another one I could not see) were in the garden the occupants of the house left by the street door and escaped in a taxi.

I could have helped them if they had asked.
