Default So did anyone else see a ton of cops tonight?

Hey all,

Driving home tonight from my buddy's place after the game. I hop on rt. 2 from Arlington, heading west. All of a sudden, a string of LITERALLY 30 cop cars go flying by me. There were easily doing 80-90. Half of them were staties, the other half were local cops.

About 5 minutes later, a string of 5 biker cops passed me, at 12:15am.

Any idea what was going on tonight? My guess is that perhaps they got called in to help out in Boston to prevent any rioting from the outcome of the Red Sox game.

Just thought I'd post up as I was wondering if something else was going on.

I don't know anything about that, but I saw a pickup and two passengers pulled over on the 495N/2E exit with about four officers yesterday at about 2:30AM. Officer zoomed by me (I was on 495S) to loop back. I have no idea what was going on, but it looked like someone was probably in serious trouble.

I'm pretty sure they were chasing this vehicle.

this seems easily like the most reasonable explanation to me.

probably not in it for the sox game, could have been a meeting or a training course of some sort. I saw this about a year or so ago.

Recently, however, I've seen quite alot of police choppers taking radar. I KNOW I got nailed once, Im waiting for the ticket, but the other time idk.

A ton of cops would be about... 10 cops? (2000 lbs. / [200 lbs. / cop] )

Maybe they were filming another Blues Brothers movie?

P.S. one of the best chase scenes ever.

I've been noticing alot of cops around the Milford area in the last few months. Alot of state troopers especially. They have always been around Milford, but never this many.
