LA Co. Sheriffs were called to a gang related shooting, and the situation
started to deteriorate into a riot. Completely coincidentally, a pair of
F-15s were in the area for an Armed Forces Day parade, and in the process
of a pair of low flybys for the parade they shot right over the park
where the sheriffs were donning riot gear and such while preparing for a
skirmish line. On the 2nd flyby the gang members ran "like when you turn
on a light and roaches scatter". I can just see all the dumbass gang
bangers actually thinking the F-15s are out to get them. Funny stuff.
