Thirty

As we made the turn onto the street where Diondro’s mother lived, we found a Chapel Hill police cruiser parked facing us, about a half block from the house. The officer inside the car flashed his lights as we approached. Farther up the street, we could see there were pickup trucks parked in front of Mrs. Taylor’s house, and there were two men with shotguns sitting in chairs in the shade provided by the carport.

Tony flashed his lights and rolled down his window, as he stopped his unmarked Crown Victoria beside the Chapel Hill P.D. cruiser.

“Good afternoon, sir. May I ask who you gentlemen are and what business you have in this neighborhood?” The officer asked.

I had to smile. Not long ago, it was a common practice for white police officers in white neighborhoods, to stop cars with black drivers and ask the same question. This was the exact reverse scenario.

I was pretty sure the Chapel Hill cop was aware of the irony, and he found it just as amusing as I did.

“I’m Lieutenant Escalante with Tyler P.D. and this is my associate, Mr. Tucker. We are friends of the Taylors, and they’re expecting us.”

“Yes sir. Go right ahead.”

Tony drove up to the house and parked behind one of the trucks. The men with the shotguns had shifted over in front of the house.

Diondro came out the front door and waved us in, indicating to the armed men we were not a threat. He held the door for us as we went inside.
