Why is there a police car parked across from my house without lights on?

I would say they are watching yours or a neighbors house for suspicious activity

Technically a Police car is never parked... it’s true... they never are!

They're looking for a quiet place to eat their donuts.

The cop has a crumpet that lives there?

Oh, James. What now? What did you do?

It’s a stake out. Or he lives next door

Arresting your neighbors, I expect

Sneaky cops, spying!

You know why

🤔

The charitable interpretation is that they might be protecting someone in one of the homes. 🤔
