DALLASGIRL0618 Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 If I heard and understood the scanner correctly, the young boy said his dad was shot and possibly dead. This is on Bennett Rd. close to Pine Valley. I sure hope this is not true. I don't know the age of the male. Link to post Share on other sites
PsychoMom Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 I hope you heard it wrong. It sure doesn't sound too good. Link to post Share on other sites
DALLASGIRL0618 Posted March 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 I hope you heard it wrong. It sure doesn't sound too good. I did not hear wrong. They just said this is at 156 Bennett Rd. Med 3 is responding. They traced the cell phone number to that address. The young male said his dad was shot and then hung up. The young boys traffic was very distant, but he did say he thinks he father is dead. SO is also in route Link to post Share on other sites

DALLASGIRL0618 Posted March 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 They were not able to find anyone at that residents. They got the address from tracing the cell phone. I don't know how accurate they can get those traces. I hope this is not happening somewhere else and they went to the wrong address. Link to post Share on other sites

PsychoMom Posted March 17, 2007 Report Share Posted March 17, 2007 I just began listening, but I thought I heard someone say something about the coroner. I am really confused. Should we listen to the sheriff's scanner or the ems one? Link to post Share on other sites

The cell phone traces are only as accurate as your last known billed address, fyi. ETA: it is imperative that if you're calling from a cell phone - give them where you are first. If you dont know what the exact address is, do your absolute best with your last dying breath to give them as many details of your location as humanly possible before you hang up. They'll send in the calvary to you but they gotta know where you are they can't do anything to help. Link to post Share on other sites

Should we listen to the sheriff's scanner or the ems one? Really? I did not hear that. I don't know. Rescue 3 is responding to a new call though. I am going to start a thread about it now.
