flewellyn | Well, shit.

Now the latest word is that they're blocking off the roads west of here, at the edge of West Fargo. The police and National Guard have cordoned off I-29 in both the north and south directions as well. And they've got troops stationed at all the bridges between Fargo and Moorhead, watching for suspicious traffic. No word yet if they're patrolling the waterfront.

Friend of mine who works for police dispatch told me that they've been getting an unusual number of calls reporting assault by strangers out in the Dilworth area, east of Moorhead. In this town, any number of such calls is unusual, but this is weird beyond weird. It sounds like whatever they were trying to keep from getting past Glyndon, got past them.
