After a few minutes, a Sheriff walked over. Had questions to ask, but it appears someone in a pickup slammed into a power pole, then ended up on the edge of an embankment to a retention pond. I’m not sure why it blew 3 transformers, but whatever.
The Sheriff said there was a man and woman who fled the scene. Wanted to know if we saw anything, which we didn’t. As we walked back to the house, my wife heard them yelling, “shots, shots, shots, engage.” I didn’t hear it, but I’m not about to call her a liar.
Apparently, we’re in the middle of an active crime scene and don’t have power. Super cool, you guys.

Damn, transformers just exploded all around us. We’re in South Lyon. Spirit, did that happen by you? There were 3 separate explosions within like a minute*
