I went to an appointment at Valley Eye yesterday in Florence. Shoals Pediatrics is right behind it on Ana Drive I believe. When I arrived the place was literally surrounded with cops cars (It's a small parking lot) People were outside crying. I only had to stay at the eye doctor a few minutes and when I left I saw an officer putting someone in the back of the police car. I thought this might be in the newspaper but of course it wasn't. Does anyone have any idea what happened?

Sounds like maybe parents of a patient got into it, family dispute carried out in public. Or upset over having to wait, maybe drugged or drunk, upset over a bill, etc. Probably someone that could not be controlled. Could have been a child brought in that had been abused, or dog mauled. Many reasons why the police could have been called. With many involved probably an adult threatening or hurt someone.
sounds like you need to ask imya_huckleberry what happened. if it was only something being reported and someone being arrested makes you wonder why the whole place was supposedly surrounded. Although I would worry if I had been in the building when this occured. There are crazy people out there that shoot at anything and anyone or fight anyone or just are out to cause problems. I would have been very upset if I had been there.
Why such side talking. Why not just say:
A guy was doing such and such and the cops arrested him.

Why not just say what happened - no names - just the story.

I personally don't care why they were there but it does drive me crazy that people act like giving out information that came across a scanner is somehow going to get them in trouble.

Some information is not put out over the scanner, it is now given via Mobile Data Terminal (MDT).

May I ask a question, Why would you be upset?
you dont think these things happen all around you and you never know! they came, did their job and left, no one was hurt, (thank god) nothing more nothing less!
I'm glad several police officers did respond from different directions to keep the person from running with those children in the car. Just a few weeks ago everyone was fussing about high speed chases so lets not fuss about too many cars responding. They blocked him in and got those precious babies to safety. Thank you police officers for a job well done!
