It's not hard to find the cause of the sirens and the police activity. In fact its almost to easy. Dusk has faded to night and this night is full of colors. Flashing bright colors. During the day Crocker Park offers trees and a small open grass field in downtown Sacramento. At night, well other nights, it could be a quiet place to enjoy solitude or the starting grounds for one hell of a party.
Tonight though the park is surrounded by police and news vehicles. Sacramento PD cruisers and suvs quite literally surround the block by block park. Where a vehicle isn't blocking access police tape has been pulled to form a barrier of thin ribbon. Outside of that line local news crews are going Live and getting ready to go Live.
Officers watch the news crews and a slowly growing crowd. There are a few that remain inside of the police line but the majority have made their way outside of it and now stoically look out, away, from the park.
From a block away the pack sees all of this. Over the local radio station they hear "...police are refusing to comment on the developing situation at Crocker Park. Local callers have reported hearing what sounded like an animal attack. We will keep you informed Sacramento, as we always do..."
This continues the story from Marking the Territory. I've tagged the rest of the wolves as well in case they happen to hear about what is occurring and decide to investigate.
