Was driving from Silverdale/Bremerton after work around 7pm Sat May 30th and saw to my right in Gorst about 50yds down from Custom Hearth Stoves on the right, 3 LEO prowling to small house on a dead end road with their ARs drawn and ready. . The 20 seconds driving up hwy 16 was intense just "looky looing" . I wanted to slow down and watch more but there was heavy traffic behind me.

If anyone can give me detail on what might of happened I/we would appreciate it greatly! Thanks ! My guess would be a domestic dispute with a firearm involved.

Could be most anything in that area. Meth Lab? Drug House? Who knows.

I graduated from HS in Kitsap County and back then the Gorst area was kind Kitsap County's "Dog Patch". Lots of shanty's, broken down trailers, junk yards, and just about anything else you might find next to a military base (Shipyard). Last time through it wasn't much better except for the old mill being gone and fewer trailers.

Yeah, Gorst is kind of the armpit of Kitsap County, no offense to residents.

It was probably drug-related.

Well, at least they have nice, respectable businesses like their coffee stands to give them a good reputation.:uhoh:

Kind of like Hollywood Movie Sets. Just the front of the building looks nice but when you go out back it's just a bunch of junk.

Right...I can tell you from experience that you are quite mistaken...

Welcome to OCDO By the way ;)
I really don't want to argue with you. I'm new here and I don't want to upset the apple cart, but I have first hand situation with a neighbor that the LEO brushed off the noise and gunfire at 1 am. Both neighbors are dead now, but I guess speeding tickets have priorty over domestic violence here in KC. Thanks for the welcome:).

Welcome, again, Squeak. Nothing was meant to be arguementive, sometimes the guys here get a little (read, a lot) sarcastic.
