Will It Go 'Round In Circles?

Will it fly high like a bird up in the sky? You bet your ass it will. At 0430 today, just as I was hitting the sack, an L.A.P.D. chopper started orbiting this sector for about two hrs.
A man armed with a knife and holed up inside an apartment unit in Koreatown was taken into custody Thursday by police.
It was not immediately known what time the suspect was taken into custody. Police were dispatched to the location in the 200 block of South Normandie Avenue at 3 a.m., Officer Rosario Herrera of the LAPD’s Media Relations Section said.
Earlier, paramedics dispatched nearby at 12:46 a.m. to the 500 block of South Normandie Avenue on a reported stabbing call, took a person to an area hospital, said Erik Scott of the Los Angeles Fire Department.
That person’s condition was not immediately known, Scott said.

Overkill Editor:
It was using its Nightsun. Other than that, no idea, esp. since the City News Service timeline says the perp was located at 0300 & the chopper didn't show until 0430.

A few yrs. ago someone in the same block possibly took a shot at someone from their balcony. There were two choppers for that one (surprised they didn't collide in mid-air) & the streets were closed.
