That is why I stopped to look at it and pulled out my phone.
I didn't know if there was going to be a medical emergency or crime in progress.

They were there for about a half hour, it is near a place where I walk all the time.
Then they finally left.

I did not know what to make of it.
I didn't know if there was anything of value in the tower or not.
