Fargo, North Dakota
This week, we are challenged to share a creepy photo. Well, it works for me if the subjects “creep.” View the original photo challenge here.
Yes, that is a real SWAT team creeping toward a residence front door in Fargo, North Dakota. I was working out at the gym one day when I noticed that most of the people “working out” were staring out the window and chatting softly.
When I saw the SWAT team, I pushed open the door just enough to take a photo, kept behind the door for cover in case bullets started flying, and used my cell phone to snap a pic. Then I quickly ducked back inside.
A few minutes later an officer stopped by the gym to let us know the activity was only an exercise. The photo was taken with a Samsung S6 and edited with Snapseed.

I think this photo definitely counts as creepy because not only was the SWAT team creeping up on the house, but it could have been for a creepy reason too! I’m so curious as to what was going on that SWAT needed to be called?! I wonder if there’s a news article that relates? What a neat shot!
❤ and harp strings,

Thanks. It turned out to be a training exercise.
Aw, that’s not nearly as exciting! lol But the photo still looks awesome so at least there’s that. 😛
Did you ever watch the ‘Fargo’ TV series with Billy Bob Thornton? Now that was very creepy indeed. 😯
Indeed! We watched it for one season. Too creepy for me.
Glad to hear it was just a training exercise, but I can well imagine it got your attention!

It did indeed, until we learned not to be concerned.
