It was my home. I could not be more grateful to my neighbors and to the Washtenaw Co Sheriffs Dept and the Michigan State Police. The first cruiser arrived in 1 minute 30 seconds. He heard it over the radio, was close by, and was there before the teletype went out to all units. In all,according to neighbors, 9 units responded, and surrounded my home. Fortunately no one was home, but the Police did not know that at the time. It could have saved our lives.
