Reading John Shotwell's tale reminds me of my experience on the way back to Santa Fe after my last trip.
We were stopping at Autozones trying to find old stock of an alternator belt. The last one I stopped at was in Joliet, IL. NOT a good neighborhood to shop in!
They had the 11 mm belt that I needed and I was in their parking lot laying under my GMC putting on the belt when three police cars pulled into the parking lot at high speed and parked blocking the front door. They entered the store with their guns drawn.

I hurried up in tightening the last bolt on the alternator and then got into my motorhome and put on the engine cover and got the heck out of the parking lot.

On the street within four blocks I saw another five police cars heading toward Autozone.

I didn't stick around long enough to find out what had happened but I assume that there was a robbery attempt right after I left the store.
