In the article linked though, wasn't it said that Old Colony is a dead end street.. so assuming only one way in and one way out.. so.. whether the neighboring camera could see exactly where the officer went, one would assume the camera still would have caught the cruiser going down the street, staying a bit, and then leaving the street?Old Colony Road is quite winding. There are sharp curves in the road to the left and to right of the Sherman house. It is quite possible that the neighbour with the CCTV couldn't even see a cop visiting the other neighbour's house, which could be roughly 10 houses down the street.
"Given the location of Old Colony Rd., a dead-end street on the east and accessed off Bayview Ave. (a main thoroughfare) from the west, it is likely that a police officer would have passed the car parked in front of the Sherman home that Thursday morning on the way to check out the 911 call."
