Never A Dull Moment - Possible Dead Bodies, Superheroes, Google and Gas

As some of you know, I live in one of the strangest places.  My friend calls it the Bermuda Triangle.  She lives on the same street as me, just up a ways, and she never sees anything strange.  I see weird things on a daily basis. There truly never is a dull moment here.  This morning, a little after 7am, I received a text from a friend that asked if a dead body was found outside my door.  I asked why.  She replied 'look'.  So I did.  Just in time to see a TV news truck packing up and pulling away.  So I have been watching the news all morning and I have yet to see my house or anything around my house.  This isn't the first time the news has come to my front door, but last time it was to interview me (that interview was later shown on CNN).  I did hear something right outside my bedroom window early this morning that sounded like a car door slamming, but it was way too early for me to  pull myself out of bed to take a peek outside.  I would just really like to know what they were doing there.  Maybe they found out there was a band of Superheroes in the neighborhood?
Yesterday the Google Maps car drove past my house.  I really wanted to run out and stand in front of my house and strike a pose.  But I was too chicken.  Then I spent the rest of the day regretting it.  I mean, when do you ever get a chance like that?  And I just let it go to waste.
There has been this incredibly annoying high pitched whining sound outside.  All day.  For the last few days.  It is really driving me crazy.  I asked on my neighborhood facebook page if anyone else has heard it.  That way I would know if it was just me or not.  One of my neighbors put on there there that it sounds like a busted gas line.  Oh great.  No one light a match!

*UPDATE*
I just called the news station and they said they were doing a story on West Nile Virus and since there are so many mosquitoes here...This is true. There are quite a few. So no dead bodies.
There was this other time when I saw a guy drive a backhoe machine down the street and start digging at 2am. I thought there was for sure a dead body involved in that one, but it turns out he was just on drugs.
