AIBU - sounds like I'm being nosey but WTAF is going on.

Live in a street, detached house but houses close together, new estate.

Last night, around 12 uniformed Police & 2 plain clothes arrive NEXT door. Outside for about 30mins no police cars/vans just a lot of radioing/phone usage.

Half the police then go round the back of said neighbours house into their garden.

Nothing, no drama in the street, no one taken out the house etc. Hour later all police disappear.

I'm just hanging around in my house now & 3 marked police vans arrive again, all get out, try and gain entry again to next door.

A. I'm a bit of a "hate this sort of thing going on outside my house etc as the police vans parked outside MY house (great!!!)

B. Jesus what is going on to warrant so many police?

C. Fuck sake!

D. Where the hell ARE my neighbours?

E. This will out me (hopefully not) but ZZ lister lives there

F. I actually hope they are ok!?

So my question is AIBU to want to know what the hell is going on????

We had something similar a few weeks back. Turned out to be a stabbing Sad

Unless there's been some major earth movement, last I checked, Hull wasn't south of the Watford Gap.

supergran231158 · 23/04/2016 22:35

Hope OP and family are ok. She is very quiet, bless her

readyforno2 · 24/04/2016 08:47

Haha. Me too Lady don't have a clue!

Luc28 · 24/04/2016 10:43

So .... Did you find out what was going on??

GrandMarmoset · 24/04/2016 11:07

Shameless place marking.

MegCleary · 24/04/2016 11:23

Utter shameless place marking.

SooBee61 · 24/04/2016 11:28

Well it can't be explosives or firearms or they'd have evacuated the street.

Maybe it was a domestic?

Shirkingfromhome · 24/04/2016 11:30

this is going to turn into another Victorian safe thread isn't it? Sad

Ketchuponpizza · 24/04/2016 12:22

Eeeeek!

GrandMarmoset · 24/04/2016 13:08

Come back OP. MN is waiting and watching. ( virtual curtain twitching)

Pipbin · 24/04/2016 13:29

I'd forgotten the Victorian Safe until now.

LazyMilk · 24/04/2016 13:38

Not another safe thread, please!!

QueenCarpetJewels · 24/04/2016 13:52

I doubt a domestic would have made them send out that many police!

But yes. Come back OP!

caramac04 · 24/04/2016 14:57

Nothing to offer so placemarking. Sorry.

millymollymandy82 · 24/04/2016 15:33

OP is not coming back, is she?

The2Ateam · 24/04/2016 15:36

Probably reports of a burglary or break-in. If your in London, it would be reasonable to ask your local policing team if the incident presented any risk to you or your property.

SweetPeaPods · 24/04/2016 16:38

497 comments and we still don't know what's going on?! Hope everything is ok OP

TheBestChocolateIsFree · 24/04/2016 17:24

My guess is that the OP had a friendly chat to NDN and offered to help out with the DC and is so overcome with guilt about gossiping about the poor woman on MN that she's staying away. OTOH if that were the case you'd expect her to have asked MNHQ to delete the thread.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 24/04/2016 17:44

My guess is that the OP googled cases of libel and defamation of character and decided to ditch this thread and deny all knowledge of it. Grin

ParisGellar · 24/04/2016 18:09

Sorry. Place mark.
