[RRR is away on leave]

I'm not nearly as good at it as RRR but I will try to post what I can. I have a scanner, but am not always where I can listen, especially during the day.

 

If something interesting is going on, I'll try to post in the evening.

[Structure Fire]

ChrisinPC:

 

I'm sorry about the loss of your grandfather. That is such a tragic thing. I don't live in the subdivison. I heard it on the scanner. They really didn't say anything else other than what I posted. That's the only thing I don't like about the scanner. . .you hardly ever hear how things turn out.

 

My house caught on fire back in 1987, two days after Christmas. It was faulty wiring in the stove. We lost almost everything we had. My kids were 18 months and 4. That was the most devastating thing I've ever experienced. I lost my kids' baby pictures and birth certificates with their hand/feet prints. That's something that can NEVER be replaced. At least we were not home and no one was injured. It could have been much worse.

[Possible Shooting]

I turned on my scanner last night and was in the middle of what appeared to be a shooting or some other serious injury. One of the officers sounded very upset and kept repeating that he needed an ambulance. Life flight was called, and there was a lot of discussion about the landing zone. They suggested the Winn Dixie parking lot (not Save Right), the parking lot of the Jehovah Witness church, and even in a new subdivision that was being built. They ended up landing in the road, but I have no idea which road. I do know that it was somewhere off Highway 61 because a friend called me to see if I knew what was happening. He said there the SO was everywhere along 61 and something was going on. My friend lives off of Dallas Nebo Road.

 

Does anybody have any idea what happened?

[Note Error Reports here or if you can't post]

I can now get onto Countywide News and post. I still cannot get on to Scanning the County. It asks me for my password, which I'm assuming is the same as for Countrywide News, but it won't accept it or allow me to log on.

 

Any suggestions?

[Structure Fire]

There was a hang-up call received earlier from 57 Indian Trail Lane, the house that is on fire.

[Structure Fire]

Across the street from 60 Indian Trail Lane. This is off Hiram-Douglasville Highway. The fire department is on scene and there are flames and heavy smoke seen.

[Accident]

I never do down that part of 61; however, I will gladly sign a petition. There is no need for an intersection like that NOT to have a light. No one should have to lose their lives before a light can be put up.

[Woman Thou Art Loose!]

I wasn't able to see the show because I forgot to tape it. Does anyone know the name of the movie? I would like to get it when it comes out on DVD.

 

I have a family member who was sexually abused by her stepfather. She didn't reveal it to anyone until she was 19. She did go to the PC Sheriff's Department. They prosecuted. The sorry low-life SOB is now serving 15 years in prison. This child went through hell and back. And she held it all inside until she was 19. She will probably never be free of emotional problems. He was sentenced to 30 years but only has to serve 15. She will be serving the sentence he gave her for the rest of her life.

 

So I know how devastating this is and what it can do to a family.

[Accident]

My prayers are with those involved in the wreck and their families. If anyone hears anything else, please post the info.

[RRR]

Any idea what the guy did? What is the deal with the middle schools being close by?

Your bobcat is precious!!!

[Accident This Morning]

I will certainly keep her in my prayers.

[10-50 with injuries]

I've always heard that it took a number of serious wrecks or one or more fatalities to get a red light up in almost any county if one was not planned at the beginning. As counties grow, the need for additional light increases. It should not be based on how many or injured or killed. It should be based on traffic volume and need.

[Accident This Morning]

It's good to know that Sarah is going to be ok. And it's really good to know that the other people involved in the wreck were caring and concerned. Many times, people just don't care.

[Obituary]

I wondered if that was the same person. The information in the paper and what was posted did not match. The paper said he had a wife and two small daughers. The post reerred to his fiance. The paper said he was 21 and the guy on the 4-wheeler was 26.

 

It's terribly sad that such a young life was lost no matter what the reason.

[PERSON SHOT HIMSELF 10-60]

That is so sad! My daugher lives in The Columns. She is in the 1000 building.

[Obituary]

I just read my copy of this week's paper, and there was an obituary for a young man named Joseph Todd Jones, Jr. He was 22 years old. He passed away on 9/18/04. My daughter thinks she went to school with him.

 

Does anyone know what happened? Was he sick or was he in some kind of accident?

[Another horrible accident]

I am so sorry to hear that the young man passed away. I will certainly keep his fiance and family in my prayers.

[10-16]

Does anybody know anything else about this? I'd just like to know that the baby is ok and the lady is in jail.

[10-16]

Didn't hear anything else until just now. The dispatcher told one of the officers that SO responded. No real update.

10-16 in progress - 206 Galvin Trail

SO and rescue in route

[Marietta Man Kidnapped - They did it again]

My boss just found out last night that Mr. Hensley lived one subdivison over from him. He got home from work and there were a lot of media vehicles at the subdivision entrance. The media was even trying to talk to people in my boss's subdivision.

 

I am so sorry that they killed him. It just breaks my heart to think of all the American lives lost over there.

 

My heart goes out to his family and they will be in my prayers.

[10-50 with extraction-rescue]

Glad to hear he's doing better. He is in my prayers.

[Unleashed dogs attacking kids]

I used to have a Pit Bull. He didn't like everbody, he was very picky about who he liked. Therefore, he was kept in a fence and we had "Beware of the Dog" signs up all around our fence. There was a kid who lived near us and he used to aggravate my dog constantly. He rode a skateboard and would act like he was going to hit the dog with the skateboard. My dog hated that kid. He never came in our yard and, since it was a public street, we couldn't keep him from riding his skateboard and aggravating the dog unless he actually came in our yard. Or that's what we were told.

 

One day, the dog dug under the fence and got out. The kid with the skateboard came down the street and didn't realize the dog wasn't in the fence. When he picked up that skateboard, the dog started chasing him. I'm truly surprised that the dog didn't hurt him. He did nip at him but that was all.

 

The kids parents called animal control and they came out. I was at work but my brother was at my house. They didn't take the dog then, but we had to bring him to the animal shelter, and he was quarantined for 10 days.

 

Needless to say, the kid left the dog alone. His family finally moved away.

 

So, some dogs are provoked. But if a child is scared of a dog, he's not going to get near enough to provoke the dog. Hopefully, the owners will have to bring the dog to the shelter and they will check him out. If it's not the first time they've been called on this dog, maybe they will do something to make the owners keep the dog out of everyone's yards.
