I was half way asleep when I heard this moaning. not like a neighbor getting off, but like a wounded animal. I figured it was some junky in the park across the street but when I looked out the window I saw three cop cars. Not typical. I waited for a few minutes but the moaning continued and the ambulance arrived so I went downstairs.

Some dude was laying right in front of the door to my apartment building. He looked like a frat boy kinda - it may have been the boyfriend of the dude on the 4th floor with the pitbull. He was still moaning, urine trailed from the crotch of his shorts down the sidewalk and puddled a bit by the front door. the strings of the taser were coiled up used on the ground next to him.

One of the cops seemed to have scraped her elbow chasing him - the ambulance was there for her - the medic cleaning and bandaging her elbow.

When they tried to get the wet, moaning man into the police car, he could not stand. Two of them dragged him into the backseat and he fell limply forward into the corner where the drivers seat met the door.

One cop was busy taking pictures of the scene - the front of my building, the other cops injury. He had the lady cop take off her freshly applied elbow bandage off "for documentation" but the camera was out of film.

I stood in the open doorway of the apartment, watching all of this, wanting to know what the fuck happened, not wanting to interrupt - they looked busy, wanting to be asleep, not wanting to ever be the guy who got zapped and pissed and moaned himself. I asked meekly if he was 'from the park' but the cop with the camera said he was 'right there' pointing at the intercom by the door.

Not really sure what to do, I watched for a few more minutes and went upstairs.
