"Coincidences"

It was police issue, so it went back into the vertical dash mount in the patrol car.

I see. It was not where the gun came from but it was who got it to you.

Yeah, definitely came from the car I was in --- but how it got to me is an unknown. I just put it back where it belonged.

And you never forgot your gun again?

After that, I ALWAYS kept one in an ankle holster - a Charter Arms aluminum 5 shot .38 snub nose.

Just in case.

Yay, you learned your lesson. And God clearly wanted you to stay here longer. I wonder if there are times that God has kept us from disaster and we are completely oblivious. Of course, there's no way of knowing this side of heaven....

Well, there was a time I just happened to be coming home for lunch, and saw an older black Cadillac near my apartment. I called for backup cause something didn't look right (it was 3 AM - yeah, lunch!) and another patrol car pulled up to him while I approached from the front.

We saw a sniper rifle laying on the back seat, two men in the front, and we had them get out so we could search the vehicle.

It was AFTER we had them in custody at the police station when one of them pulled out a card with his attorney's phone number on it, and something else fell out of his wallet.
My buddy bent over and picked it up, then slammed this guy onto the floor and cuffed him - startled me quite a bit cause it was so quick.
(the other guy had already been processed and was in a cell)

When he had the cuffs on the guy, he handed me the item --- it was a picture of ME with a red circle around my head "in the cross hairs".
