Hello Operator, is there something wrong with my line?

While spending the majority of my morning making phone calls in a desolate room, I was startled  by a session of text messages from Emeline saying, "there are several people outside getting arrested," "laying down on ground by mural," "4 cops." The gods must have heard my prayers, because the action packed events that unfolded made the last two hours of monotony well worth the pain. My hidden track star emerged as I burst from my hidden work room in the corner of the office and jumped over a chair to find Emeline and Nora standing by the window. I started to whisper, "what's happening?" as if the cops hundreds of feet below could hear me. They both replied "I don't know." Nora said, "I heard stop and get on the ground," while Emeline said, " I heard freeze put your hands up." It was the most excitement I had experienced all day. I lifted up the window and the screen to listen in on the action from below. There were eight police cars on the street, three men on the ground, and four officers searching the men. The other officers had scattered around the area searching for what I am not aware, but I assumed they were searching for another incognito criminal whom was lurking around the area. We stood in awe of the events that were unfolding when Emeline said, "does he have a white bag in his hand?" My attention turned to the officer who had pulled a bag of a white powdery substance from one of the suspects. I gasped!! This had turned into a real live Law and Order episode. Then the officer pulled a gun from one of the assailants pants and put them into plastic bags marked evidence. Next,  the men were pulled from the ground and walked over to the police cars. All of the excitement was too overwhelming so I decided to retreat back into my cave to lower my levels of psychic energy.
