[narrator]<i> It's the middle
of a quiet evening</i> <i> in this Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
neighborhood.</i> <i> House sparrows are chirping,</i> <i> and sunlight peeks through
the clouds in the distance.</i> <i> But even in a tranquil place
like this,</i> <i> a neighborhood war
can spring up at any moment.</i> [gunshots] <i> Two vehicles come barreling
down the street,</i> <i> and gunshots echo
through the neighborhood</i> <i> as the passengers
shoot out of their windows</i> <i> at each other before the two
cars collide at full speed.</i> <i> This head-on collision
could have killed</i> <i>the riders from whiplash alone.</i> <i> But incredibly,
some of the passengers</i> <i> are still conscious</i> <i> as they jump
out of one of the sedans</i> <i> and take off on foot.</i> [narrator]<i>
The neighbor's first instinct</i> <i> is to run outside and help,</i> <i>but after hearing the gunshots,</i> <i> none of them wants
to approach the vehicles.</i> [dog barking] <i>Another few passengers step out</i> <i> and take cover
behind their wrecked car,</i> <i> unsure if anyone
from the other vehicle</i> <i> plans to come out shooting.</i> <i> And when they see
the coast is clear,</i> <i> they run off.</i> <i> It's never made public
what causes</i> <i> this shocking confrontation.</i> <i> Days later, a total of seven
people are arrested</i> <i> in connection
with the shooting.</i> <i> But because they're minors,</i> <i> the Milwaukee PD
releases no further details</i> <i> to the public.</i> <i> While a literal
neighborhood war</i> <i> playing out in front
of most people's homes</i> <i> would make them want to move,</i> <i> the woman with the security
camera isn't intimidated</i> <i> by the violence,</i> <i> saying, "We cannot live
like this,</i> <i> and we are not leaving
this neighborhood."</i> [dog barking] [men grunting] [narrator]<i> Texas might have
nearly 700,000 miles of roads,</i> <i> but with more
than 17 million drivers,</i> <i> it's only a matter of time
until they run into each other.</i> <i> When these neighbors
in Arlington, Texas,</i> <i> meet over a minor
fender bender,</i> <i> what should be
a painless transaction</i> <i> turns into an exercise
in frustration</i> <i> when one of the drivers
refuses to give up</i> <i> her information.</i> [man] Ma'am,
ID and your insurance, please. Yeah. I also have
your license plate. Yes. Yes. How am I gonna have them call
if you didn't give your number? [narrator]<i>
This woman seems unaware</i> <i> drivers involved
in minor accidents</i> <i> are required to exchange
information</i> <i> before leaving the scene.</i> [man] Just give me your phone
number so I can be in contact... You just sideswiped me, lady. Look at it! I didn't hit the gas.
I was driving in my lane and you turned into it. [narrator]<i> Suddenly,
the conversation takes off</i> <i> in an unexpected direction.</i> [man] Just me the ID then. [narrator]<i> Right into traffic.</i> [man] Wow. [narrator]<i>
In all the confusion,</i> <i> the woman forgets
to put her car in park</i> <i> before getting out.</i> [man] Mother of the Year Award. [narrator]<i>
Fortunately,</i> <i> traffic is stopped
in both directions</i> <i> and her son is wearing
his seat belt.</i> [man] This lady is crazy. Oh, my God. [narrator]<i>
Even with her unplanned detour,</i> <i> she's still not ready
to do things the easy way.</i> [man] Can I get it, please? Okay, well, the insurance
can decide that. They investigate these things. You get into a wreck, you give-- You exchange information. I will call them right now. [narrator]<i> The police arrive
a short time later</i> <i> to facilitate the exchange
of information,</i> <i> and leave the investigation</i> <i> in the hands
of the insurance company.</i> [man] This lady is crazy. [men grunting] [narrator]<i> A family inside
this home were watching TV...</i> <i> when out of nowhere...</i> <i> A driver exiting the parkway
too fast</i> <i> loses control of his vehicle.</i> <i> A camera in the driveway
captures another angle.</i> <i> The vehicle barrels
into the family's driveway...</i> <i>striking their car and narrowly
missing their house.</i> <i> Amazingly, no one
is seriously hurt.</i> <i> And the disoriented driver
is actually able to walk away</i> <i> from the wreck.</i> <i> Police deem the crash
an accident,</i> <i> and no arrests are made.</i> <i> The homeowners are now
working with their neighbor</i> <i> and the county to get safety
measures put in place</i> <i> to prevent this kind of thing

to collide with a parked truck.</i> <i> While she seems to be okay,</i> <i> the same can't be said
about her car.</i> -[starts engine]
-[man] Hey, no, no, no. Turn the car off. Call the cops. [narrator]<i>
The man has seen enough,</i> <i> and tells his dad
to call the cops.</i> [man] Turn it off. You're cut. What happened? How do you not see that? You ain't getting your car out. [narrator]<i> The eyewitness
goes to his neighbor's door</i> <i> while the driver
tries one last time</i> <i> to make her getaway.</i> [knocking] [man] My dad's on the phone

concedes defeat.</i> <i> When the police arrive,

restaurant,</i> <i> and is now in his car

passenger seat.</i> [man] I don't know,
but I'ma record this [bleep] in case this drunk--
He is drunk as [bleep]. You can tell by looking at him. [narrator]<i>
Just moments earlier,</i> <i> the man recording this video,</i> <i> who lives next door
to the restaurant,</i> <i> claims he witnessed neighbors</i> <i> unsuccessfully try
to stop the driver</i> <i> from getting into his SUV.</i> -[man 1] Oh, hell, no.
-[man 2] Damn, man. [man 1]
This dude's piss-ass drunk. He can't even get out
the [bleep] parking lot. [tires screech] [narrator]<i> Barely managing
to get out of the parking lot,</i> <i> the driver's now veering
towards oncoming traffic.</i> [man] Oh, my God. [narrator]<i> Concerned neighbors
rush to the scene</i> <i> to help the victims
of the crash.</i> [man]
You stupid drunk [bleep]! I got that on [bleep]
camera too. You drunk piece of [bleep]. You're a scumbag. You. [knocking on window] [driver] Come on, man. -[man] Are you okay?
-[woman] No! -[driver] My bad.
-[man] Here, record this. Just stand back and record this. [narrator]<i>
The man recording this video</i> <i> hands off his camera
to another concerned neighbor</i> <i> so he can help the driver
who was struck head-on.</i> [man] I think you're okay. I think you're just
a little shook up. Get out of the car. You gotta get out of the car.
Come on. -Come on, come on.
-[narrator]<i> Thankfully,</i> <i> the woman is wearing
her seat belt,</i> <i> and the car's airbags
deployed.</i> [man] Here, step out of the car. I don't want it
to catch on fire or anything. -I think you're okay.
-Are you okay? Step over here. [narrator]<i>
She's lucky to be alive,</i> <i> as are all those
involved in this crash.</i> <i> After getting her to safety,</i> <i> the neighbor confronts
the drunk driver,</i> <i> and is concerned
for the condition</i> <i> of the woman passenger,

Are you okay? Get the [bleep]
out of the way. You need to move
so I can see if she's okay. Get the [bleep] back.
You're making me nervous. Are you okay? Hey, did you call the police? Okay, I think she needs
an ambulance. You okay sitting there?
You're not gonna move? All right,
I guess she's all right. [man] I guess. Yeah, it's really weird
that you would question that now before your drunk ass
got in the car and drove. I saw you [bleep] get
in the car. [narrator]<i> Police, firefighters

It's the afternoon,</i> <i> and everyone's trying
to get home from school.</i> <i>But for neighbors on this block
in Brooklyn, New York,</i> <i> rush hour takes on
a whole new meaning.</i> <i> After stealing a school bus

Luckily, there are no kids</i> <i> along for the ride.</i> <i> Now trapped in gridlock,</i> <i> neighbors try to keep the bus

-[indistinct chatter] [police siren whooping] [men grunting] [narrator]<i> It's almost evening
in Cleveland,</i> <i> when two local officers
respond to a call</i> <i> from a homeowner
whose neighbor has somehow</i> <i> bizarrely crashed a car
into his own house.</i> <i> But the situation
is much more serious than that.</i> <i> And what's worse,</i> <i> the neighbor is standing just
feet away from the inferno.</i> [officer 1] Sir! -Ooh.
-[officer 2] Sir? [officer 1] Why don't you
step over this way. [officer 2] Your car's on fire. Your car's on fire! [narrator]<i>
Despite their pleas,</i> <i> the disoriented neighbor
doesn't budge.</i> <i> But that's not
their only worry.</i> [officer 1] I'm gonna tell
these neighbors to get out. Their house is gonna catch. [narrator]<i>
The fire is spreading fast.</i> <i> The officers alert the local
fire department,</i> <i> and now it's a race
against time</i> <i> to warn the next-door
neighbors.</i> [knocking on door] [officer 1] Cleveland Police! -[woman] Okay.
-[officer] Okay. [narrator]<i>
Hearing the commotion,</i> <i> the disoriented neighbor
of the car</i> <i> finally walks out.</i> [officer 2]
Are you okay? Hey, are you high?
Are you drunk? You okay? What? What's going on? Get over here by this car. [narrator]<i> The man is detained.</i> <i> But then the cops
get some alarming news.</i> [officer 1] I need 2-7. The neighbor said
there's an old woman that does live in this house. [narrator]<i> And the officers
need to get inside</i> <i> before the entire house
is engulfed in flames.</i> [knocking] [officer 1] Go, go, go. No, I don't have one on me. [officer 2] Watch out. -All right.
-[glass shatters] [narrator]<i> Every second
they can't get inside</i> <i> could be the difference

The house is on fire. -[man] Is it?
-[officer 1] Yeah. [narrator]<i> As explosions go off
in the background,</i> <i>they finally get the door open.</i> <i> Luckily, after a quick
search of the property,</i> <i> the officers are relieved

to extinguish the blaze</i> <i> before it can spread to one
of the neighboring houses.</i> <i>But the damage is already done,</i> <i> not only to the neighboring
properties,</i> <i> but also to the car
that is now toast.</i> [officer 2] Holy [bleep]. [indistinct chatter] Plate burnt to a crisp, yeah. Can you see the VIN at all? [man]
And it was in perfect condition. Yeah, perfect condition. [narrator]<i>
The man that the police believe</i> <i> is responsible for the blaze</i> <i> is taken to the hospital
