Freeze!

Have you ever seen a cop pulled out his/her gun? Have you ever seen a Chinese RCMP in Richmond pulled out his gun in the middle of busy traffic in broad daylight?

I have!

I was just leaving my street and was about to pull out into Garden City heading towards Alderbridge Way, when I saw an RCMP police car on Garden City with lights and sirens on, trying to stop the car in front of it (it was obvious). Traffic was heavy but everyone steered out of its way to make room so the RCMP and the car ahead of it can pull over to the right side. Being in Richmond, of course, the suspected car stop in the middle of the road. Nobody knew what was going on so we all stopped and wait. After what seems to be 30 seconds, the officer in the car used the speakers and asked the van in front to pull over to the right side. Van did not move, so officer quickly flashed his lights, and repeated his instructions on the speaker. Man, those speakers were loud.

So when the Garden City/Westminster light turned green, traffic quickly moved and made way for the RCMP and van so they could have room to pull aside. Van decided to keep moving on the fast lane (insert OMG emoticon). RCMP quickly flipped his siren and lights on again and repeated his instructions on the speakers to the van in front of him. At this point, I was thinking, omg this van must be loaded with armed drug dealers or something! Anyways, they managed to finally pulled aside after they passed Westminster and I just happened to stop at the red light, watching them. The officer sat in his car for about a minute, getting his stuff ready when suddenly the van in front of him started moving slowly again! (insert OMG emoticon again). The officer quickly jumped back into his car, turned on his sirens and lights again (!!) and screamed over the speakers "Red Caravan license plate XXX XXX stop and pull to the right immediately!!!!". Van stopped, officer hopped out of his car and pulled out his shiny silver gun, aiming it downwards, approaching slowly to the van ahead of him and at this point, the entire world stopped to watch because well, it is some crazy stuff eh! Stupidest move yet - the driver of the van rolled down the window, slowly opened his door (!!) and tried to step out of his car.

The officer yelled at him to stay back in the car and kept pointing him to do so. Guy finally went back into his van and the RCMP still had his gun out, calmly and slowly trying to tell the driver to stay in the car.

Turned out, the driver of the van was a Chinese man who looked like he's in his 70's, with an old lady beside him.

I wonder if this is as exciting as it'll ever get in Richmond.

Did I mention the cop is Chinese (well I can't confirm that, but he looks Chinese)? He's pretty hawt, too. Not as hot as Leehom, though.
