I was curious what was going on this morning. I was heading north and 6 state troopers were barreling south on 169. I'm guessing meth-lab investigation??

Maybe we should get all the facts before we start jumping to conclusions.

there were several men and woman in bullet proof vests all over my town of fontana, I actually saw them in action putting their lives in complete and unknown kind of danger for our safety, they were very aware of everything and everyone that was coming and going in fontana. I have much earned respect for them, my neighbor who was an officer off duty today went home got geared up and went to join in on this search, it is just amazing cause actually, they are never really off duty!!!! thanks guys and gals, very much!

Well I know Fontana very well and being a secluded town as it is gives it a good chance of being drug related. Especially if somebody was shooting at the police. I'm not speaking as a fact, just an educated guess.
And Fontana is a nice quiet little town which has alot of history. Hopefully it all gets worked out and the trash removed.

Thank You to all the Officers that placed their lives on the line for Fontana. You do an awesome job and don't receive enough credit. Fontana is a nice, quiet town. Yes!we hope everything gets worked out.

So that was why there was four or five Sheriffs cars sitting at the Praireview High school yesterday about 3:00, we could not figure out why they were there,the school was not locked down at that time and no one has said that they had been locked down.
