FreeBird Posted August 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2009 Haven’t heard much more on this other than the traffic of the officers directing traffic a clark unit did go in service Didn’t hear of any traffic of a Clark unit transporting anyone - they normally relay their beginning mileage and destination as they leave the scene.

bwilliams Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Two boys hit by car on Hwy. 61 in Paulding By MASHAUN D. SIMON The Atlanta Journal-Constitution 7:43 p.m. Thursday, August 20, 2009 Two young boys were reportedly “banged up a bit” after being struck by a car in Paulding County. The boys, both 9, ran across Ga. Hwy 61 when a woman in a Chevy Cavalier, traveling north, struck them, said Lt. Paul Cosper, Georgia State Patrol spokesman. No charges have been filed. “The woman did nothing wrong,” said Cosper. One of the boys was transported to Egleston Children’s Hospital. The other was taken to Scottish Rite Hospital. The boys appeared to be fine on the scene, said Cosper. Their current medical condition is unknown. Find this article at: http://www.ajc.com/news/two-120474.html Link to post Share on other sites
