My guess on what went down
Driver of the car was either pissed or afraid. Mass group of people approaching with the intent purpose of fucking up the road. Driver makes a move to get out of the area and can’t. That may have been due to people in the way. If you watch multiple videos online the protesters have a tendency to rush the drivers in these events. The protesters rush the car. The driver may now be rightfully scared at this point with people hitting on the car and yelling. Driver looks up and there is a dude with an AK up against his shoulder who probably thought he was going to teach this driver a lesson and scare him due to his AK. Well that didn’t work as planned and the driver took out the guy with the AK.
Several things I am interested in learning. Did the driver have his window down? I found it interesting that no one else was hit. The shooter was either really calm or a pretty good shot. I am also very interested in the background of the shooter. Also did the driver turn himself in? That hasn’t been made clear. Who else was in the car? Why were they out driving on Congress at that time?
You need to find out if that fire department was responding to an emergency call. There is no transporting a family member running lights and sirens. A fire engine isn’t an emergency Taxi.
Are there witnesses stating that the fire engine did not have its siren sounding? If so, there is no way she should be ticketed. Even when running lights and sirens it is the responsibility of the person driving the emergency apparatus to ensure that vehicles yield to them.
She needs to get a lawyer. None of this makes any sense to me. I am a Chief of a VFD and have been driving Fire Trucks for over 25 years.
You may want to try a local store (Walmart or what ever) manager. I have had a person purchase a pallet of water for my department at cost after explaining what he was trying to do.
As a Chief of a volunteer fire department thanks for doing that It really helps as it is always a challenge to operate with tight budgets and our cost keep increasing
Nothing in that article say anything about drug parties, pay refs, or any of the good stuff. I posted a link above that is free.
Nothing that is going to stick to Snyder in that article either. Bad toxic shit but nothing near what was hyped.
He has already hired a female lawyer and I am sure a PR team and will come out of this OK.
In 2019, Santos was the subject of an internal investigation after Rhiannon Walker, a reporter for The Athletic, informed club management Santos had pinched her, told her she had “an ass like a wagon,”
A 17 year old died here on Cedar Creek Lake yesterday. It was by a boat ramp so it could have been a diving related injury. I think he is at least the third person to have died on the lake this year.
No official reason stated. My guess is that they didn’t want to waste tests when then already knew the answer. I did hear that many places around here ran out of tests yesterday.
Have you heard any numbers/stats on how things are doing around the lake? Just learned that a former teacher of mine who lived over around Malakoff passed away due to complications from the virus
Did you go to Eustace?
I live full time here on the lake. Henderson County had 17 positive test today. There were several tied to a local restaurant. When I got tested yesterday I saw at least 6 others tested. My Dr Said he tested 35 yesterday with 4 positives. They are also undercounting here. I know one household that has 4 people with COVID but they only officially tested 1 and that is the official reported number.
In my little red neck part of East Texas I was able to get a rapid test done yesterday within 10 mins of calling and got the results back 17 mins after they scratched the underside of my brain. Negative
I found out I had been exposed (for a short time and outside) to a COVID positive person a few days before.
Neck/back spasm. I went to bend over to pick something up when I was at work and the worst pain I have ever felt in my life hit me. I could move my head. Driving home from work was an adventure. Getting into bed and then getting up to use the bathroom, man that was excruciating. I really considered just pissing on myself.
